The True Costs of Pandemic Prevention and Response

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Given the poor evidence underlying pandemic cost and financing estimates, it is prudent not to rush into new pandemic initiatives until underlying assumptions and broad claims of a return on investment are properly assessed. These must be based on robust evidence, recognized need, and realistic measures of risk. WHO Member States will be better served by having transparent estimates that reflect reality and risk before they engage in such an uncertain and high-cost endeavour.

The Culture of Devaluation, Destruction, and Devolution

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

We shut down the world for a year or even two and during that time, the stock market boomed and money arrived in our bank accounts as if by magic. It seemed like government could do anything and nothing would break. Now we wake to a world in which breakage is everywhere. It turns out that governments have no magic wands to defy the realities of cause and effect in this world, and that applies to public health, economics, and culture too.

Are We at the End of Progress?

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

All those dreaming of control like to believe that they should rule the world in order to save it from some great danger. At the end of the day, this is simply a selfish fascist fantasy. The West is now encumbered by huge layers of parasites whose living is made out of exaggerating fears and stealing from people under the guise of saving them. The EU Commission is a particularly glaring example of such a group, but they are everywhere today: people just trying to make a buck, but costing their society dearly.

spectacle propaganda

Above All Else, It was a Spectacle

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The Powers That Be use propaganda because it works. Images are powerful things. Photos and videos operate on the subconscious level. So even while we are rationally discussing the evils of this propaganda campaign, to even re-share the images here is fraught, because seeing them again produces an affect. It was traumatic to write this article — even though I know the images are contrived, they still affect my psyche.

The Progressive Authoritarian Tide Retreats

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Governments have managed simultaneously to be increasingly out of touch with people’s real concerns and meddlesome busybodies interfering in people’s daily lives. The result is that the liberal democratic order is being stress-tested domestically just like the liberal international order.

Trump’s Art of the Deal Collides with Modi’s ‘India First’ Policy

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

For the purposes of containing China’s influence and aggressive behaviour, there is no more important partner for the US than India. That strategic partnership is under threat from an explosive combination of American arrogance and unilateralism and Indian hubris and prickliness.

Choice Quotes from Bill Gates’s New Book

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

I’m sorry to report that the entire book is a study in mysophobia, more worthy of study by a student of abnormal psychology than a public health official, much less a scientist. That no one has ever pointed this out to him is a disgrace. It’s the trouble with being so rich that you become uncriticizable.

Propaganda and the US Government

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Propaganda is a form of public opinion manipulation involving creation of a specific narrative that aligns with a political agenda. It uses techniques like nudging, repetition, emotional appeals, selective information, and hypnotic language patterns to influence the subconscious mind, thereby bypassing critical thinking and shaping beliefs and values.

First Comply, Then We’ll Grant You Some Rights

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The political establishment is so devoted to this cause that it is hard to see how we can extricate ourselves. Accepting the first lockdown was the decisive point. We sacrificed our rights due to fear, and nearly two years later, we still don’t have them back. It was as obvious then as it is now: power is never seized and then voluntarily returned.
