I used to visit New York City several times a year but I will not go anymore as long as this craziness continues. I feel sorry for the people who live there.

Same here. I live in NJ and have a good friend in NYC. I used to visit regularly, and we’d go out for coffee and snacks. Where can we go now? I wouldn’t even be able to find a bathroom I could use before returning home. Untested, unmasked, unjabbed, unafraid.

Having a close friend who lives there, I can guarantee that many businesses are completely ignoring this asshole, the same way they ignored the last asshole. Thankfully. That does not necessarily help the businesses under the yoke of fines and/or city control, but still...

I understand that's true for the jab requirement at restaurants and masking in stores, but it's hard to know which is which and it's stressful and exhausting to deal with testing places out, unless you do it with a group as a planned act of civil disobedience, and that also requires a lot of psychological and emotional stress. This city I used to love is pure dystopia now, and really, it's New Yorkers who are to blame. I'm convinced that most of my neighbors have been taken over by body snatchers. There's no other way to explain it, even allowing for mass formation psychosis.

I keep asking myself if the vaccines don't contain some ingredient that makes people more suggestible or controllable...

Expand full comment

Oh, I'm definitely convinced they do. And I started wondering early on if all the flu jabs so many people have been taking regularly on a yearly basis do too. I kept thinking it would be an interesting study to see if the people who went insane overnight (and it really did seem that way) had had the flu jab in the fall.

Expand full comment

This is the first time in 20 years I didn't take a flu shot. I figured I can no longer trust that what's in any vaccination is safe and effective, if they are SO insistent on us getting the Covid shot. I'll just do without and take my chances.

Expand full comment

Ditto. Last took a free (actually, $10 gift card) flu or pneumonia shot in late 2020 before the ("vaccine") madness began. Needless to say, my confidence in the medical profession has not increased in the year since. I am leery of anything they want to inject (I will take risks for local anesthetic, etc.). I will likely never ("voluntarily") accept another vaccine or not-clearly-explained injection or medication for the rest of my life.

Didn’t they contain heavy metals

Expand full comment

It's not all gloom and doom. You can remove heavy metals from your body using activated charcoal pills sold in the vitamin aisle as a vitamin and chlorophyll extract which is a lot stronger at removing heavy metals from your body. The liver throws toxins it does not know how to process into newly created fat cells. During ketosis when you fast or are on a high protein and fat but low sugar diet, your liver will recover sugar from fat cells and release these toxins into your bile ducts to your stomach to be reabsorbed through the stomach and then back to the liver and into fat cells. This process poisons your blood and causes headaches. You can get rid of most headaches with activated charcoal and chlorophyll extract, which allow the body to excrete the heavy metals. Activated charcoal is also a remedy for poisoning to pull toxins out of the body.

The CDC now admits that all vaccine shots used to contain mercury because they are proud to say that they switched to using aluminum as the adjuvant. The adjuvant irritates your immune system to make it notice something else local to the adjuvant. This is technically a shot in the dark. Your body can easily detect healthy cells or health immune cells as the problem and start attacking your body. Mercury is one of the most toxic and destructive elements you can introduce to the human body. Aluminum may be 10 times worse than mercury when injected into the body completely bypassing the immune and filtering processes of the body. By introducing mercury and now aluminum we are being poisoned. The side effects are what we call diseases and being on the spectrum and sudden infant death syndrome, etc. 50 years ago, 1 in 1000 children were on the spectrum. Today, 1 in 43 children are on the spectrum of autism. They want dumb fools that will fall for anything while their pockets are picked. They want people who just don't care AKA docile slaves. The word android and robot come from medieval times when the human chattel of a landlord were classified as androids and robots. Androids were semi or fully educated people that had the semblance of being human and could perform delicate tasks indoors but could not think only appear to think. Robots were outdoor laborers that could be tasked with anything from farming to moving the paths of rivers or logging trees and building roads. Robots were definitely unable to think. Makes that line from the medieval play Star Wars all the more poignant when you can think and actually know the context. The Jedi master, Ben Kenobi, says something like, "Imagine the trouble we would be in if robots could think." The elites AKA royals want to get back to that and they are halfway there. We are as ignorant as we want to be and have no concept of what anything is or how and why things are the way they are in the world unless we are given hard talks by our family explaining the unwritten truths of the system of the world when we are young. We are unable to think because we are ignorant of the facts and the people in power and the people behind the power and the family ties and their agendas. Something the elites and their androids are well aware of. Like the way vaccines are made with human embryo cells and animal cells and aluminum. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/prevent/how-fluvaccine-made.htm The process can't filter out the virus found in the original source animal cells because then they would also filter out the virus fragments they are intentionally growing in aborted fetuses and chicken embryos that have been turned into a growth culture with a blender. AKA why people consider it against their personal religious beliefs to inject foreign organisms from dead animals and people into their bodies. A little bit of information the news outlets leave out to keep you from *thinking* about how similar to cannibalism and weird cross species genetic manipulation vaccines are. How and why of the current system of the world here. https://odysee.com/@howtoruntheworld:e/How-And-Why-Big-Oil-Conquered-The-World:b Educate yourself so you can live without fear and relax and finally think. Fear is the mind killer. Fear has taken 10 IQ points off of the average IQ in the world during this plandemic. I like the part about the German railway during WWII. It seems similar to China's Belt and Road through Kazakhstan and Russian gas line through the Ukraine to Europe and China and access to the sea for their ships.

"unless you do it with a group as a planned act of civil disobedience"--the key word here is planned. As in what happens if it all should go south for some reason, and you find yourselves arrested--or worse? Do you have someone who can step in and manage your daily lives should that happen? I'm sure those who went to the Capitol on January 6 did not stop to think that a year later some would still be behind bars with no trial date or charges. The demonstrations and sit-ins of the Civil Rights Movement were highly planned, with prominent leaders and spokespeople, organizations, lawyers, etc. and that still didn't stop people from being beaten, arrested and in many cases losing their lives. Make sure you know what you are doing and what all the potential consequences are before you act.

I believe this jerk ran as tough on crime and received many votes from the outer boroughs. Of course, he immediately got into a bear hug with the new DA. So, yes, the well off libs got what they deserved, the others were likely bamboozled.

I knew from dealing with him as Brooklyn Borough President in activism on another issue that he would follow orders from TPTB, but I have to admit I was surprised at how eager he was from before day one of his "administration" to make it clear that he wouldn't show any independence or veer from the totalitarian agenda even a centimeter, even just for a minute, for show. That he's corrupt (of course) I knew, but that he has no self-respect was a bit of a surprise.

He has always been liberal. Not surprising he says what it takes for votes and then ignores those voters. Hopefully he really will act on the crime issue but given no prosecutions, good luck with that even as a joke. Nice excuse for not delivering.

Expand full comment

"Hopefully he really will act on the crime issue" I think he got a lot of votes based on that hope. I heard the other day that he's announced that the city will no longer prosecute minor crimes--like vandalism, robberies and burglaries of small amounts, I guess. Maybe part of it is due to lack of manpower in the police due to all the firings of the unjabbed, and the rest is out of control wokism as an excuse to further destroy the city. As to not prosecuting "minor" crimes: I have a friend who is homeless, had all her stuff stolen when she looked the other way for a moment and had to stay overnight with us because she didn't have a sleeping bag or the tent she uses and it was 18 degrees and windy. Efforts to get the police never materialized. I guess the "value" of her items were below the threshold, but for her it could have meant life or death.

Expand full comment

The police can arrest and if Adams words are true they will, but those arrested must be held to account, a prosecutor's job. Whether Adams can shame the prosecutor is unknown. The broken window theory says you must stop criminal activity early to avoid a bad future. Some seem to think that untrue. The most vulnerable in society need the most enforcement and accountability despite the more fortunate remaining comfortable thinking lower taxes.

As far as I (an Austrian) can assess the current situation, Germany seems to be many steps further in the „awakening process“. In Austria the government and media have gone completely crazy. I do see a lot of critical voices covered by German MSM (even Welt and ZDF), but in Austria there‘s: well… nothing. Vaxx mandate will be installed by Feb 1, unvaxxed should not be allowed to work from then on, lockdown for „unvaxxed“ (well, double vaxxed also, but hey, just get your booster!) will be prolonged until further notice. They even think about forbidding „unvaxxed“ exiting Austria. But hey! This has probably nothing to do with the tender love bonds between some „experts“ and politicians and the pharma industry, that obviously exist (there is a great article in the latest issue of the boulevard magazine „News“). And the magazine also states that a vaxx mandate would bring advantages for certain „stakeholders“. But psssst, that‘s only „Geschwurbel“ from conspiracy theorists ☺️.

I've come to accept that I will not be able to lead a limitless life anymore. At one time, the whole world was open and I could - and did - go anywhere I wanted.

Now, I will not participate in any place that discriminates in this new way. Because make no mistake, that's exactly what it is.

Remember when we all used to be against discrimination? Remember when discrimination was a rallying cry that was used to make real progress for equality, but also was used as a red herring for opportunists to just get stuff?

Remember how those who are doing the very same discrimination now would cry about it before? How virtuous it was for them to fight against discrimination?

Anyway, I accept that until the world regains balance, I will be going to the places that don't discriminate against me, don't "other" me, and I'd encourage you all to do the same. There WILL be another side of this, and those making and enforcing these discriminatory policies will realize they were on the wrong side of history and ethics.

Yep. I'm taking names. Anyone who discriminates against me (especially small businesses and restaurants for whom I went to bat repeatedly when they were shut down, but who now demand that I take health advice from them) will never again get one red cent from me.

Within the human race lies a bent to be popular, to be with what's cool and popular right now. It originates from the fact that our ancient ancestors had to be incredibly communal, safety in numbers, the outlier gets picked off by the predators, etc.

The way that plays out is as old as it is predictable. How many high school plays and movies are about the outcast trying to find a seat at the lunch table. The cool kids are all over there, laughing and joking. There's the nerds, the freaks, the jocks, etc. Always some group. Then the outcast becomes the cool kid because they stand up to the cool kids who are insecure, scared, and are only huddled because it's convenient in that moment. Once the math changes, the cool kids waste no time in turning on each other and tripping over each other to get to that next place of safety where they aren't on the outside, regardless of how much they have to degrade themselves.

I've always been wary of the cool kids. There was a time I desperately wanted to fit in, and when I did, I realized how exhausting and empty that could be. Now, I do my best to simply be consistent, to lead, to be humble, to be confident and bold, and most of all to have firm convictions, and I'll tell you, it's amazing how I attract like minded people who are solid, real, and unwavering.

The past two years have revealed a lot of things, but one of those things is the fact that humans want to be in a school of fish, and whichever way that school swims, for whatever reason, they will mindlessly go along, because thinking for themselves is too dangerous.

This too shall pass. I'm writing a series on my Substack that talks about how we break this global mass formation, which will be published in the next couple of days. But it will be broken, and when it is, there's going to be a lot of people who get a very real reckoning and realized they, in fact, WERE the asshole.

In the meantime, meet me in the middle! (it's NOT the cool kids table...but it kinda is)

I've already done this with a locally owned grocery store in my neighborhood. I supported them all through the lockdowns, even though I could get most things at much lower prices at supermarkets -- and they even thanked me for doing so. But when our mayor imposed another mask mandate, they went bonkers and refused service to anyone not wearing a mask or even wearing one of those mesh fake masks. The manager (whose wedding and first baby I'd helped celebrate in the past) told me, "Other customers can move away from you if they feel uncomfortable, but my cashiers can't." In other words, I'm viewed there as a walking sack of contamination. So I told her I wouldn't be back. And I haven't been. I ignore the mask mandate everywhere else, and no one has said anything to me except in a couple of places, and I've told them, too, that I won't be back. (This is in the Midwest, by the way, not NYC.)

Great response. I was very disturbed when I heard Brandon was discriminating against white people when it came to handing out the Covid treatments.

I was in the same mind space 2 1/2 years ago. Now I'm interred in Canuckistan, disemployed, (solvent, so I could tell them where to put their own ClotShots), wondering if I am still obliged to send them tax money, and trying to reconstruct a 25 year life plan.

As a provincial rube, my visits to New York have been a bit intimidating, even after reading Tom Wolfe's "The Bonfire of the Vanities". It's probably Superman's fault , but as a reader of history, I could feel the power in the centre of the empire, in a way I never experienced in London, Paris, or Tokyo.

Having encountered a group of the young "Masters of the Universe" at a friend's party 3 decades ago in Greenwich, I understood that they were not better than my provincial peers, but they were certainly more influentially situated.

So, appreciate New York for its assets, but don't neglect the underlying corruption.

Andre Gregory predicted this 40 years ago in “My Dinner with Andre,” as I discuss in “COVID IS OVER! … If You Want It” (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/covid-is-over-if-you-want-it):

ANDRE: [An English tree expert] said, “I think that New York is the new model for the new concentration camp, where the camp has been built by the inmates themselves, and the inmates are the guards, and they have this pride in this thing they’ve built. They’ve built their own prison. And so they exist in a state of schizophrenia where they are both guards and prisoners, and as a result, they no longer have, having been lobotomized, the capacity to leave the prison they’ve made or to even see it as a prison.” And then he went into his pocket, and he took out a seed for a tree and he said, “This is a pine tree.” He put it in my hand and he said, “Escape before it’s too late.”

Of course, "zenith" may be a matter of opinion, but I would argue that you are off base. Using objective measures of quality of life (wealth, jobs, low crime, etc.) America's heyday was probably around 1950 (+/-). If this standard is valid, then, unless you are at least 80 years old, you couldn't possibly have first-hand life experience of what was in all probability the acme of quality of civilization in the USA, at least in big cities.

I grew up in the South Bronx of the 1940s and 1950s, lived in the North Bronx and worked in Manhattan in the 1960s, and it was a wonderful place to live. I left to join the Air Force in 1970, and by that time the decline was beginning. Every time I went back on leave, my mother had to give me what we called an intel briefing on which streets were no longer safe to walk on. I haven't been back in decades and I wouldn't want to go back. The NYC I knew and loved is long gone.

That may have been the case pre-covid, but recent stats show huge red increases in Florida (Jeff Childers pointed that out in Coffee & Covid recently) as the refugees move south.

I think (and hope) it will be the same out west, that this new exodus to Utah / Idaho etc. is qualitatively different than the earlier exoduses that ruined Colorado and put Arizona on the edge.

Fantastic point. As I have long said about gated communities, "one cannot lock the bad stuff out, because you take it in with you." If Texas and Florida become "NY south" that ain't really much of an improvement!

His idiot predecessor, the Accidental Governor Wanda Vazquez, banned alcohol sales after 7pm and on weekends (or something like that; I don't recall the details, but I do recall being denied a six-pack purchase at 7:02pm on a Saturday because I don't speak Spanish and I didn't understand the loudspeaker warning 10 minutes earlier)...where was I?

Oh yeah, the one sane thing Pierluisi did was to revoke the alcohol sale ban almost immediately upon taking office.

Since then, he's shown he has sh*t for brains, as has his health minister.

The right question to ask on commissions is how much is this mayor being paid by pharma? Why is he peddling a product that is past its expiration date? What did bourla say just three days ago?

What did the EU say two days ago?

What is this fetish with leaders trying to stick things into people? If only Weinstein were smart enough to vaccinate his victims first, he’d have been the patron saint of all these people instead of rotting in jail.

The only question I have is this: "Who is responsible for an adverse vaccine reaction that was mandated by your company, via the government?"

Expand full comment

Funny how none of the mandate pushers seem worried about those consequences. The drug companies have liability protection but not the others. In a way I think that explains the push even knowing that the pandemic is over. If they can force everyone to take the shot there is no control group. Harder to prove causality of adverse effects without the control group.

Expand full comment

Side effects? What side effects? They have been defined out of existence, you see. Remember the girl from Pfizer's trial who had "gastric distress" (= nasal feeding tube and paralysis)? So, worry not, adverse events can all easily be treated with Tylenol. ;-)

I’m looking into a loss of income insurance policy, and I already have a term life insurance policy. I’d suggest both.

Expand full comment

Good luck. Insurance may have a purpose, but they stay in business by collecting premiums, not paying claims. Lost your job because you refused a legal requirement to get yourself injected? Declined. And that life policy...if deaths are really climbing as much as claimed (40%; by my own calcs Florida's is up about 25% compared to 2019...) just how long will life insurance remain affordable?

Expand full comment

But at least there's always somewhere *else* to go to. If America herself goes down, that's it, there's no more safe haven. Federalism ensures that there will be *some* safe haven states, so long as the Constitution isn't shredded by SCOTUS by piercing the federalism principle...in which case, one particular element of the Constitution will come to the fore.

I grew up in WNY, but left NY state in 1990 due to the outrageous taxes and rampant, unchecked corruption. Why anyone lives there is beyond me. As for NYC, Adams told you what he was during the campaign, and you voted him in anyway. Just like you voted in marshmallow brain AOC, and continue to re-elect that corrupt, loathsome Schumer, and that corrupt, disgusting slob Nadler. I have no doubt you will elect that arrogant wretch, Hochul next November.

I'm sorry, but it's hard to feel sorry for people who keep voting in fascists and then complain when their God-given rights are stripped away.

el cato. as a visitor to Manhattan right after Thanksgiving, traveling on business, I can relate that even then, the locals were over the ro. Compliance was theater. The restaurants, happy for biz, gave a cursory glance at cdc cards ( I could have put a pic of anything on my phone), and masks were a joke in bars (just sit down, you can unmask, the ro goes away).

That said, it is disappointing that a Mayor - and one who appears intelligent - wouldn't think for a second about the amazing structure of our government, that thankfully the SCOTUS said 'vax mandates aren't unconstitutional, congress can go vote for one, but this is a work-around.'

A colleague / friend of mine, who's super smart, was driving back to BK from the midwest - and even he's driven bat shit crazy : "since we got boosted, the drive was better, as we could go into restaurants along the way" ... my point being, even the non-politicians have bought the propaganda

It does have an affect. Also an effect: It makes him solely responsible if he chooses to impose a mandate.

There is a very good chance that the large of "unvaccinated" people in the NYC hospitals (at least according to the NY Times) is the result of now ex-Mayor Bill de Blasio's job mandates which went into effect December 20th. Remember one is not considered fully vaccinated until two weeks after the 2nd jab, which would be in a week for someone taking the 1st jab on December 20th. I think it is pretty solid that the jabs suppress your immune system for that period of time (at a minimum!) and makes one more likely to catch COVID, among other things. If one looks at the graphs in a recent NY Times article making this claim, they say "Not Fully Vaccinated", though the article talks about the "unvaccinated". This is disgusting.

I've never been a fan of de Blasio to say the least and its sad beyond words that Adams is continuing the insanity.

I'm reading Australian officials don't want Novak Djokovic in their country because he threatens their narrative on vaccine policy. You'd think the fact something isn't doing what you said it would do would be the narrative that matters.

Moral of the story is don't ever let the government take away your right to self defense. Australiams gave up that right and look at how the government is defending them!

It's remarkable to me how newly elected persons of all levels (local, state, federal) quickly adopt the emperor attitude. Someone who worked with a new governor told me that they spent half of the first year of his term convincing him that he wasn't on his way to the White House. The first sign of a kleptocracy incipient is certainty in abuse of power.
