While there are clear specificities between the suffering of Africans under the system of chattel slavery and the deprivation of civil liberties endured by most citizens around the world during the current pandemic panic, Anastácia reminds us of certain transhistorical constants in the process of dehumanization and subjugation of populations through the gagging and muzzling of their bodies to quell their protestations.

Why I Will Not Take the Second Dose

The advent of a vaccine to relieve the human population of the menace of a fatal disease should be a moment of global celebration. But to the Zero Covid mind, Covid-19 vaccines are a weapon in a fight against nature, not a voluntary health intervention to protect the vulnerable. And when humans with their propensity for muddled thinking position themselves against nature, they invariably end up positioning themselves against fellow humans.

Do Not Give Up Your Rights ~ Dr. Julie Ponesse’s Speech

Julie Ponesse / November 3, 2021 / Philosophy, Public Health, Society / 10 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The dismissive, well-rehearsed messaging of our public health officials has created a highly efficient machine that does not publish its evidence or engage in debate, but only issues orders that we obligingly follow. With the help of the media, its mistakes are hidden, its policies unquestioned, its dissenters silenced.

The Damage of Masking Children Could be Irreparable

Eric Hussey / November 3, 2021 / Psychology, Public Health, Society / 15 minute read

Given the development of abilities to discriminate faces and nuances in faces and emotions that show in faces, based on specific face-discrimination neurology in a specific area of the brain, what year-long (and growing) period of time do you want to take the risk of impairing by surrounding children with masked faces while limiting social interaction?

A Review and Autopsy of Two COVID Immunity Studies

Martin Kulldorff / November 2, 2021 / Public Health / 10 minute read

“I have worked on vaccine epidemiology since I joined the Harvard faculty almost two decades ago as a biostatistician. I have never before seen such a large discrepancy between studies that are supposed to answer the same question. In this article, I carefully dissect both studies, describe how the analyses differ, and explain why the Israeli study is more reliable.” ~ Martin Kulldorff

The Greatest Transfer of Wealth From the Middle Class to the Elites in History

Carol Roth / November 1, 2021 / Economics, Public Health, Society / 5 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The one-two punch of government fiscal and Fed monetary policy continued to destroy the fabric of the economy for the average American. It dislocated the labor markets and the supply chain and it has ultimately led to inflation, which is making the basic cost of living much more expensive for Americans all across the country.

The Candy Shortage Is But a Sign of Much Worse

Jeffrey A. Tucker / October 30, 2021 / Economics / 6 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The candy shortage is emblematic of deeper issues affecting economic life after lockdowns. The empty shelves you see at the local store are only the final stage revelation of problems pervasive in all production structures. The problems are not being fixed. They are all getting worse, even after all the promises that the shortages, dislocations, and inflation were merely temporary.

The True Meaning of Masking

Robert Freudenthal / October 30, 2021 / Masks, Philosophy, Policy, Psychology, Public Health, Society / 9 minute read

If we are people in a society with an authoritarian structure, where our ability to participate and do the things we wish to do every day are conditional on the approval of government, then our way of relating with power structures is no longer one of “We are all in partnership together” but one of “behavioural correction.” In such a system the mask becomes a tool for enacting that behavioural correction.

Dr. Deborah Birx’s Failed Attempt to Flip the Script

She makes some very serious charges, while evading responsibility for her central role in the egregiously botched response. Birx not only pushed Trump to enact lockdowns. She personally called health officials in every state and demanded that they do the same. And did this for months. They complied based on her position and authority.

This Is Not a Pandemic of the Unvaccinated

Günter Kampf / October 29, 2021 / Policy, Public Health, Society / 12 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Some politicians speak about the “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” But fully vaccinated individuals can harbour high viral loads, spread SARS-CoV-2 and cause severe and fatal Covid-19, also among other fully vaccinated individuals. Social cohesion should not be jeopardized because of an erroneous and narrow view of the epidemiological situation.

Jab Mandates Are Both Unethical and Fail the Cost/Benefit Test

Of all the unprecedented violations of human rights and individual liberty that have been inflicted on populations during the Covid-19 pandemic, the most intrusive has been the relentless campaign to coerce every last individual to be vaccinated.
