Indeed! They are experts from the standpoint of those who destroyed trust in public health but paid no price for it. Nor will they pay a price, and hence, their being propped up as experts somewhat makes sense. #WeAreSoScrewed
"All States are governed by a ruling class that is a minority of the population, and which subsists as a parasitic and exploitative burden upon the rest of society. Since its rule is exploitative and parasitic, the State must purchase the alliance of a group of Court Intellectuals, whose task is to bamboozle the public into accepting and celebrating the rule of its particular State. The Court Intellectuals have their work cut out for them. In exchange for their continuing work of apologetics and bamboozlement, the Court Intellectuals win their place as junior partners in the power, prestige, and loot extracted by the State apparatus from the deluded public. The noble task of Revisionism is to de-bamboozle: to penetrate the fog of lies and deception of the State and its Court Intellectuals, and to present to the public the true history of the motivation, the nature, and the consequences of State activity. By working past the fog of State deception to penetrate to the truth, to the reality behind the false appearances, the Revisionist works to delegitimize, to desanctify, the State in the eyes of the previously deceived public."
What’s to destroy. Medical Drs are paid whores to pharma. They do what the hospital admins tell them so they collect their pay check. The hospital admins are told what to do by the bankers. Bc venture capitalists own all these medical groups and are slowly accumulating every small town medical practice.
I think everyone reading this blog likely already understands that. It's the normies who don't read this (or much else, for that matter) who need to get that message.
Dr. Faust is the expert witness for the board of medicine against me, claiming I deserve to lose my medical license for treating early Covid, and in his opinion, being in capable of reading the medical literature. Dr. Rennie was the right arm of Dr. Ashish Jha and took over for him at Brown University to run the public health department until she went to Yale. Both she and Faust are emergency room doctors which means they almost never get to see the consequences of their actions.
That's it, isn't it? That the ever-expanding bureaucracy serves most efficiently to isolate the policymakers from the consequences of their actions? As Thomas Sowell says- the feedback in such a system is ineffective as a corrective device and so these visionaries are free to pursue their utopias without having ever to reconcile the negative consequences. The system incentivizes the wrong behaviors - and it is self-perpetuating in the worst ways.
Garbage is definitely from the other end. Masks are an example of this fifth-grade wisdom, "That's so funny I forgot to laugh." For the full effect, imagine it being said in Peewee Herman's voice.
I'm sorry you had to go through that at the hands of such dunces. Am I right in remembering that you are suing the medical licensing board in your state? I hope so.
Please call on me if you need someone to testify in support of you. I'm sure there is a long line already. We are all here for you. I know Dr. Ranney was wrong on most everything. I don't know Dr. Faust but I can beat anyone in a C-19 debate.
Same is true of public school principals---in 'professional development' sessions, they can be trusted to model everything they tell teachers not to do. So ironic.
Another meaning of näck is Näcken, a pre-christian entity living in spring, creeks and brooks. He frequently attracts young women and children playing his fiddle.
In some parts, Näcken is benevolent and guards against drowning; in other parts it's the opposite. Curiously, in those parts where Näcken may be dangerous, another entity called Bäckahästen (Brookhorse) is the guardian, and vice versa.
Got to go to bed. Got roped in to do umpty-zillion little odd jobs for mom tomorrow. She's like Columbo when she gets started: "Oh, just one thing more that came to mind..."
Naiads are greek though. Näcken is from up here in Scandinavia. I think the closest cultural analogue would be the slavic rusalki.
But as far as I know, Näcken and Bäckahästen are uniquely scandinavian; he is often depicted as a nakedman sitting in a stream or a waterfall, playing his fiddle. Commonly, Skogsfrun (The Lady of the Forest, though Fru also means wife) may be there, listening or dancing.
In some areas, Skogsfrun and Skogsrået are used interchangably, in others they are separate entities. Again, one is somewhat benevolent if shown respect (i.e. nature is shown respect) while the other lures the greedy, the ravagers, the despoilers and the venal to their death in the deep woods...
...or turn them into game animals and subtly leads the hunters their way.
Making offerings in well-springs is surely a pre-christian tradition; there's one such spring-well about 20 kilometers from where I live. Curiously, it never freezes in winter even if it's -30C and it never dries up in summer. According to local legend, if it does freeze that heralds war and if it dries up it heralds famine.
The "-mancy" ending means "divination by". See geomancy (rock formations), oneiromancy (dreams), bibliomancy (books), ornithomancy (flight of birds), hepatomancy (animal livers), etc. So while necromancy has come to mean black magic or death magic generally, it originally had the sense of "bringing back dead people to ask them questions".
Brandon should just have had the departing rulers decree an "assault weapon" ban before going into exile with their Cayman accounts full of our tax dollars.
Then the Taliban, just like the gang-bangers infesting Chicago and other Blue Meccas, would have given them back to us in a sort of "buy-back" program.
Problem solved. It is just Common Sense Gun Control™, after all.
True story, the most famous diet doctor in 18th century England weighed over 400 lbs (which, in the era before captain crunch, was quite the rare and impressive feat). He made a fortune telling clients how to lose weight. The more things change…
The one-shot regime is a big deal, as many side effects seem to come after the second dose. Now all the health departments get to change their definition of fully-vaccinated. Of course, the news was buried on tax day.
Someone over at Instapundit commented that the government paid $22 for the original shots, but $38 for the bivalent shot. Follow the money ... and it leads to The Science™.
This part (about not even being currently eligible to get another dose) got my attention: "Most individuals who have already received a single dose of the bivalent vaccine are not currently eligible for another dose. The FDA intends to make decisions about future vaccination after receiving recommendations on the fall strain composition at an FDA advisory committee in June."
WOW WOW WOW!!! Thank you so much Norstadt! Given that so recently they said if you hadn't already taken the jab, you couldn't have the bivalent without first getting all the previous jabs. Something nefarious is going on here---but then, what is there except the nefarious where 'they' are concerned? Wonder if this bivalent is more effective at killing so only one shot needed?
I disagree—they are experts on how to destroy trust in public health!
yes, but asking them about it is like interviewing termites on home design.
😂🎯

Wow, great quote! Thanks for posting!

Those are all valid points, but notice I said “destroy *trust* in public health,” not public health itself, which as you noted is already destroyed.
If public health is already destroyed, what is to trust? Something the normies reading this need to understand.
I think everyone reading this blog likely already understands that. It's the normies who don't read this (or much else, for that matter) who need to get that message.
That's true! Everbody is an expert in something.
Dr. Faust is the expert witness for the board of medicine against me, claiming I deserve to lose my medical license for treating early Covid, and in his opinion, being in capable of reading the medical literature.

Nor do they care
I expect you to make mincemeat of this "expert" witness.

maybe he spews BS from his mouth, thus masking still required. 😂

They are definitely not the people who should be giving this talk but they are exactly who I would expect to be giving this talk.
It's hilarious that Med Page turned off replies. These people are ludicrous.
A conference on the wellbeing of mice.
Speakers: cats.
hey, i'd go to that!
These two would be fine for a lecture on what NOT to do.
So, basically, same as "Inverse Cramer" in the stock market:
https://twitter.com/CramerTracker
Cramer has been wrong so many times that anyone who still listens to him for anything besides laughs should be given a drug test.
i didn’t know about this. very funny. also reminds me of the triple lindy
"I don't joke about dives."
🤣 laughter helps me survive the madness. thank you!
Pretty much as important as " what TO do", as long as you'll learn from the mistakes of others without having to make them yourself.
Same is true of public school principals---in 'professional development' sessions, they can be trusted to model everything they tell teachers not to do. So ironic.
Love your memes ... I steal them regularly.
a high compliment, i believe!
Imitation is the sincerest form.....
FRANKENSTEIN/FAUST 2024
Trust the Experts!
nec-romanceperts
Nec(k) sounds like näck in swedish. An old word for nude. -romancer is -romantiker in swedish meaning romantic.
So necromancer sounds like someone in the nuddy trying to be romantic.
It means "romance" with the dead. Which if memory serves me Faust, through his pact with the devil, was a practioner of.
And you know; Frankenstein was a lonely heart...and dies in the end.
Not in “Young Frankenstein” Ryan!
Can you get a better duo than Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder?!
Oh..the good old days...;)
Mel Brookes & Harvey Korman as comparable 😂
Another meaning of näck is Näcken, a pre-christian entity living in spring, creeks and brooks. He frequently attracts young women and children playing his fiddle.
In some parts, Näcken is benevolent and guards against drowning; in other parts it's the opposite. Curiously, in those parts where Näcken may be dangerous, another entity called Bäckahästen (Brookhorse) is the guardian, and vice versa.
Got to go to bed. Got roped in to do umpty-zillion little odd jobs for mom tomorrow. She's like Columbo when she gets started: "Oh, just one thing more that came to mind..."
Ooh--the naiad. I have supposed that the once-common custom of throwing coins into a fountain is the residue of making an offering to the naiad.
Like your 'umpty-zillion'.
Naiads are greek though. Näcken is from up here in Scandinavia. I think the closest cultural analogue would be the slavic rusalki.
But as far as I know, Näcken and Bäckahästen are uniquely scandinavian; he is often depicted as a nakedman sitting in a stream or a waterfall, playing his fiddle. Commonly, Skogsfrun (The Lady of the Forest, though Fru also means wife) may be there, listening or dancing.

I stand corrected. I'm afraid to search for the word about fornicating with the dead.
Necrophilia?
Yeah. -philia = "love of".
🤔
Help me Pi Guy!!!!
How's this for a bumper sticker:
"Pi/Gardner 2024: We probably won't make $#!+ any worse!"
"Who's on first Costello? ".
Shiiiit my twin 12 year olds could've got us out of Afghanistan better than uncle Joe.

Pedo Joe or LGB-FJB Ryan 😊
they are experts at being monsters.
How do they sleep at night, much less come home to their "loved ones"
Oh, or perhaps they do not have any loved ones.
that makes sense.
The most intriguing question is not WHAT happened, but HOW & WHY otherwise intelligent people have gone so far off reality.
True story, the most famous diet doctor in 18th century England weighed over 400 lbs (which, in the era before captain crunch, was quite the rare and impressive feat). He made a fortune telling clients how to lose weight. The more things change…
Well, whether the devil exist or not; when you sell your soul, your biggest "investors" of the poisonous jab, now deceased, can ask nothing of you.
Noooooo, you can't just not trust us after we lie to you repeatedly!
How could the plebs do this to ussss?!
Don't trust the experts. By now, it should be clear to everyone that they don't deserve our trust.

Gatito, you are learning too much from the Bad Cat.
"Expert" no longer has any value to me.
OT, but I think this is news: The FDA quietly switched to a single-dose regimen for COVID-19 vaccines.
“Most unvaccinated individuals may receive a single dose of a bivalent vaccine, rather than multiple doses of the original monovalent mRNA vaccines. “ https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/coronavirus-covid-19-update-fda-authorizes-changes-simplify-use-bivalent-mrna-covid-19-vaccines
I'd like to see the contracts for those original shots. Did they, perhaps, only run through April 2023?
The one-shot regime is a big deal, as many side effects seem to come after the second dose. Now all the health departments get to change their definition of fully-vaccinated. Of course, the news was buried on tax day.
I hadn't thought about it coinciding with tax day. Effective distraction tactic.
Serious adverse event reports in VAERS show 42,769 after the first dose and 47,368 after the second.
Someone over at Instapundit commented that the government paid $22 for the original shots, but $38 for the bivalent shot. Follow the money ... and it leads to The Science™.
This part (about not even being currently eligible to get another dose) got my attention: "Most individuals who have already received a single dose of the bivalent vaccine are not currently eligible for another dose.

😂😂😂 “experts” who make it to the top are often buffoons. This relates to ALZl walks of life.
