Therapist: "Creeping Stalinism isn't real. It can't hurt you!" Creeping Stalinism:

Some helpful advice for all of us going forward:

I’ve said something to this effect before, and I’ll gladly say again: Once the other shoe drops, Pol Pot will be grinning like a madman in Hell as he watches the inevitable blowback finally roar to life. Everyone takes a position on whether the Unabomber was right, but I think that’s the wrong...

Honestly, the icing on the cake for me is how when something bad inevitably does breach containment, the researchers who worked there and special interests that funded them will have Pikachu faces galore when everyone else is finally fed up with them. For as much scientific knowledge as they...

Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, but in light of @Jormungandr and @Rocinante commenting on it: Honestly, I dare Oster to try and refute Killian on this. Because even though she can't (and almost certainly won't), I'm very curious as to what she or her fellow lockdowners might say, however...

Pol Pot watching from Hell when the inevitable blowback arrives, colorized:

That reminds me, I wonder if kids forced to take the vaccine who experience side effects later in life will have recourse to sue their parents or guardians? Parental authority may be the default, but that doesn't give them an absolute legal or moral right to do whatever they please. And...

Sorry to hear that. :( Don’t know your family as well as you do, obviously. But if nothing else, I’d be happy if you guys managed to reconcile in the afterlife, once it’s all over.

You know, the more I think about it, the more applicable I think this video is: Just swap "Real socialism!" for "Properly done lockdowns!", and you'll see what I'm saying. :rolleyes:

Hope I'm actually misremembering for once, but ... didn't the WHO literally praise China's lockdowns when Covid first escaped? Even if not, I think urging a communist dictatorship that probably falsifies its data to Hell and back to be transparent shows how ineffectual the WHO is — if not...

According to Yahoo! News: WHO urges China to release more information about new COVID infections.

Even so, it kinda’ creeps me out how conventional vaccines inject you with the dead virus to immunize you against the live one. Don’t have a better solution, unfortunately, but still a bit weird. :confused:

Considering how actual Year Zero happened without the kind of "Technocratic overlords playing God!" shit happening right now, I don't think we should be closed to the possibility that the next Lenin, Hitler, or Khomeini to arise is more likely to be Pol Pot on steroids — genocidal anti-modernism...

To amend an oft-used meme: "And then, for no reason at all, Pol Pot came to power!" Probably how future historians will describe the latter days of this century, I fear — because if there's anything that could catalyze a worldwide Year Zero, it's blowback against this stuff right here. :(

In that case, who wants to bet we'll have our own "Separatist Crisis" spearheaded by disaffected Red States right about mid-century? There may not be enough will or animosity for it now, but considering where trends are pointing and how the battle lines are being drawn as we speak, part of me...

Honestly, though, there are times when I wonder if we're living through our own "Rise of the Empire Era" right now. Say what you will about the Prequels, but they're looking more and more prescient every day. In fact, I half expect future generations to treat them as an inadvertent warning of...

They were literally in power when those happened, though... Hey, they can ban and "fact-check" all they want, but they can't stop more and more people from waking up, seeing as the lies they tell in times of crisis get more and more obvious with each generation. You were around for Iraq...

Then... how would they explain all the lockdowns and vaccine mandates, seeing as they were the ones in charge when those happened? :unsure:

Yeah, but other than being a “tit-for-tat” retaliation against the Covid tyrants, voluntary jail time means the rest of us will still foot the bill for the costs of imprisoning them — food, housing, guards' salaries, more prison construction, the works — and therefore, does the opposite of...
