Obnouncing oligarchic oppression...

(See * below)

Last month I pointed to the blog Consent Factory, Inc. In the final sentence of that blogpost, I highlighted "Where’s the Hitler?", another blogpost there. After the Capitol Building protest this is now worth revisiting. It is well worth a good read and the various links to multiple media outlets (some mainstream, and this is only a fraction of what there were, in many languages too) the wild Trump is Hitler accusations were everywhere. The point of the Consent factory post was that with only 5 or 6 weeks left of the Trump administration surely by now we would have seen something even remotely Fascistic, all that media, kept alive because Donald Trump bashing has enabled a whole new crazy world of fake news (and not just news: how much time, staff, money of the various hoaxes?). Can they now all just ignore it or claim they were only joking? 

"I mean, come on. Lawsuits? Recounts? Audits? Angry tweets? Golf, for Christsakes? This is not remotely Hitlerian behavior. You people promised us an attempted coup, a Reichstag fire, Nazi militias occupying the halls of Congress, stadiums full of Sieg-heiling rednecks, white-supremacist terrorists terrorizing everyone …" [sic] 

Well, Kit Knightly on Off-Guardian has this article: "The Storming of the Capitol: America’s Reichstag Fire?", "The four big lies underpinning this story show it was likely a staged event." Overtly and ominously the usual suspects in the media are 'already spinning a narrative around the events in Washington DC': 

"One that bears no resemblance to reality, does not hold up to any kind of scrutiny and will have massive, far-reaching consequences for all of us." 

I agree, and not just the media: most of the Democrats (naturally) are providing gold medal standard syncronised lying; Chuck Schumer – as part of an orchestrated and coordinated attack – has called for immediate removal and impeachment; Nancy Pelosi calling The Donald unhinged and unstable has "asked the Joint Chiefs of Staff to make sure POTUS is prevented from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike" (FFS). ALL the mainstream media – including, disgracefully, almost all the major UK news outlets – are using words like coup, siege, insurrection etc. All ludicrous, all orchestrated. 

The Reichstag fire essentially created a one-party state and we saw what that led to; that is what we are seeing now, the difference being that in the 1930s it was the German President who passed the Reichstag Fire Decree immediately afterwards, which led to a severe restriction on civil rights; this time it won't be the incumbent President: "The decree nullified many of the key civil liberties of German citizens": 

With [...] in powerful positions in the government,
the decree was used as the legal basis for the imprisonment of anyone
considered to be opponents of the [..], and to suppress publications
not considered "friendly" to the [...] cause.

I have blanked out a single word three times to avoid polemic not that the word Nazi would be wrong, just that by removing it you actually see what the sentence says instead of only seeing "Nazi": although the polemic is often used, only in November for instance by the disgraceful Amanpour on CNN. Does the quoted sentence above ring any alarm bells? Does it worry you? We will see the same thing now, directed at 'domestic terrorists' but actually for anyone who doesn’t toe the line i.e., anyone remotely conservative. Think I am exagerrating? The Obama regime had a good go and has never stopped! The sinister, blatantly lying media, all the big tech giants (edit added: already joining in banning "the most powerful man in the world"...normal right-wingers will get the same), all the security acronyms, and the seemingly senile, nut-job Democrat politicians will be in total control. 

Where’s the Hitler? It certainly isn’t or wasn’t Donald Trump and it won’t be Biden…but…

*  It Can't Happen Here [Wiki] is a 1935 dystopian political novel describing the rise of a US dictator similar to how Adolf Hitler gained power. Scroll down to the last sentence of the 'Reception' section: since DJT announced he would run for President there has been a raging, shreiking, insane mob trying to discredit him.  The overt intransigence of the entire Democrat Party for
almost the entire last 5 years, supported as already mentioned by a tsunami of
fake news – in which high ranking UK politicians are involved perhaps hence the
totally out of reality coverage against Trump) - means the future is not bright and it certainly isn't orange either.

Update: edited twice, for typos mainly and to add blog title belatedly.

'What is left to say?' A nice summing up of a "world has simply gone bonkers" from Dr. Malcolm Kendrick (a UK GP, US eq = primary care physician I think!) on his blog as 2020 came to an end. I opine that it is very much worth a read as are a majority of the comments. 

Dr. Kendrick uses and quotes The European Mortality Monitoring project, which has presumably seen it's website traffic increase several million-fold in the last 10 months. He posted images of several graphs that by complete coincidence I was viewing yesterday, gobsmacked at how many countries had seen almost zero effect of COVID-19 last year. See HERE (scroll down to below the map). "There is a special prize for anyone who can match up the severity of restrictions in various countries, to the Z-score. I say this, because no correlation exists." 

You WILL be surpised (see image left; obviously you'll need to click to enlarge but fewer than 30% of the countries listed had anything outside the 'substancial increase' range). 

Then onto other concerns: in the comments themselves many have said the actions of lockdown will have far harsher effects: cure worse than illness etc, I was saying that back in early March but more from hopeful ignorance than much else and if you consider I was in Mexico at the time and currently their fatality rate is FOUR times the global average (!!!) and the average age of death 20 and 27 years BELOW the Europe and the UK respectively maybe I wasn't so 'right' for their situation, see final column 'lethality' in the image below, from covidgraph.com...WTF?

 

Anyhoo, a the UK Office of National Statistics estimates, 17,500 excess deaths per year for several years due only to the economic impact of lockdown. (see comment January 1, 2021 at 1:01 pm) "[You] have to take into account the cancer diagnoses not being made, the people dying from other conditions who did not attend hospital when they should have done so. The increase in household violence, women and children being battered. The people losing their jobs, the impact of poverty on health. The loneliness and depression. The destruction of the quality of life of many elderly people... 

"Lockdown is killing many people. Has killed many people. may well kill more people that Covid19 will ever manage. This cannot all simply be brushed under the carpet." [sic]

Dying from Covid-19, or suffering long term effects from Covid-19 are not the only health issues that matter: "Since Covid19 arrived, far more people have died of cardiovascular disease, or cancer, or diabetes, than Covid. This laser like focus on one condition, and only one condition, is absolutely ridiculous. You can die, and be damaged, by many other things."

Indeed, and another doctor has the possible probable  answer: Dr No's The Covid Delusion. "So why all the media hysteria and government interference? Just as when the only tool you have at hand is a hammer, everything looks like a nail..."

"Psychiatry still has no idea what causes most delusions, and as a result there are many theories about their origin, some plausible, some improbable, and some that are frankly downright delusional. One of the more plausible theories involves both perceptual filtering (filtering what you see and hear) and cognitive filtering (filtering what you think), with the processes becoming self-reinforcing as the delusion beds in. Could it be that, after months of constant not just daily but hourly bombardment with all things covid, amounting to external perceptual and cognitive filtering, that not just individuals, but whole blocks of society have lost reason, and become deluded?"

Dr. No leads with a quote from psychiatrist Alfred Hoche "There is no delusional idea held by the mentally ill which cannot be exceeded in its absurdity by the conviction of fanatics, either individually or en masse". This is where we are, politicians, SAGE communists, 'experts' and general hangers-on power crazed at their new found power they will do everything to maintain the fear: including lie, bluster, omit, and ignore aided and abetted by the more-evil-than-ever main-stream media. It is reminiscent of the a witch-doctor doing all he can to maintain his hold over the chieftan. The Sun god is dissatisfied, we didn't slaughter enough innocents! 

Two more quotes to add to that of Hoche, both by Albert Einstein:

"The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits." 

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
