One might wonder if she was high enough to be on the list of people that government paid to push the vaccines. I would certainly be fearful of having my name on that list with what we're seeing happening in the world today.
My BF, a crew head on a major bway hit show was down here when broadway closed. His assistant living in NYC told him this. At first we assumed that he was just shooting off his mouth but it was confirmed by others in the business- stagehands, technical directors, general managers, etc who my BF knows very well, having worked on Broadway for around 40 years.
My BFтАЩs producer hired an entire new layer of management- a diversity PhD to train everyone in racial sensitivity, a natural hair person because тАЬthe history of America can be told by studying black hair,тАЭ a musical director who was тАЬsensitiveтАЭ (the main music director apparently offended one of the actresses by telling her how he wanted the music sung), an extra choreographer for POC cast and 2 Covid officers who needed their own office (they displaced the PSM). And then the highly paid interns of color to redress historic imbalances.
When the show finally opened with that bloated payroll, an audience too frightened to attend and weeks of missed performances every time someone tested positive, it shut down for good. No surprise there
Well, of course I donтАЩt have the accounting ledger so this is probably not the тАЬdocumentationтАЭ you were hoping for but itтАЩs the best I can do.
On another related front, we have a friend who owns a small 3 unit apartment building in the Bronx. You remember what the Feds did with private contracts between landlords and tenants? I own two houses down here and thank god, my tenants paid their rent during the pandemic but my friendтАЩs did not. He did get the money eventually paid in full- FROM THE GOVERNMENT!!!!
I know people who could have paid their rent but didnтАЩt because the government said they didnтАЩt have to and the tax payers covered them. This makes my blood boil. The government did not interfere between banks and mortgagees. If you rented an apartment in NY, you got free space but if you owned a co-op or a condo, you still had to pay your mortgage and maintenance. If you were a landlord now with no income, you still had to pay your insurance and property taxes!
Lots of people at all different levels and from many different officials were given $ to promote the shots. Even a local health dept officer would have $ in the budget from the fed govt to use at their own discretion to "reduce hesitancy".
There's a much darker motivation that can be hard to attribute to individuals but shouldn't be dismissed: the desire to be superior, to have a group of "untermenschen" to persecute and exercise power over. I think some of those people loved that aspect. I think maybe a lot of them did. Maybe Emily, too.
She describes herself on Twitter as "unapologetically data-driven." She's certainly got the "unapologetic" part right, but she had to be disregarding a hell of a lot of data to have been such a devoted Covidian.
Having spent a considerable amount of time around journalists and academics, you are correct. Most are unbelievably arrogant and view all who are not them as lesser. I'm certain this played a part in their behavior during Covid mandates. I suspect they received a great sense of joy lording over the little people on Twitter.
тАЬThe surest way to work up a crusade in favour of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behaviour тАШrighteous indignationтАЩтАФthis is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats.тАЭ - Aldous Huxley
Haha, I was just about to cite him as an example. They paid the Queen of Economcs from Brown. How does she get published in The Atlantic? Another sizable payoff was made.
Yes. We also need to know more of the 'they' as in who were the social media influencers, podcasters, academics, MD's, celebrities, athletes, 'journalists', etc. who were literally paid out of DHS or wherever to push this stuff? This should be subject of a FOIA - it was taxpayer $ pissed away for propaganda. They should be exposed so they can get proper amnesty. :P
NOW we're talking... Don't waste time chasing down individual recipients; submit a FOIA and find out how ALL the money was disbursed. I hope that's possible.
She, like the other Covidians, will never ask for forgiveness because they don't want to be forgiven. They want to do it all over again. I honestly believe these people genuinely don't the pandemic to go away. In many ways, the Covid pandemic makes them who they are.
It's not about getting it right. They have a freaking heroin addict on the list. Actually it is a very telling list. Outside or Rogan and DiSantis, the whole kaboodle could be weighted and dropped into the abyss for all I care.
What is interesting is the response to her article on Twitter. There are about 35,000 negative comments to 2,000 likes. People have to make an effort to write a comment vs click on a heart. This shows extreme disapproval for the article.
I believe that they have no remorse whatsoever for their stance. Some of them, however, are very sorry to be caught in the wrong and possibly face consequences. But in all likelihood nothing will happen to them. A few of the lower tier may be chosen to fall on their swords for the cameras, but the vast majority - meh. The higher up they are, the more responsible for this nightmare, the greater their hubris. This begging for amnesty is mostly pre-election jitters and terror over Twitter. I just wonder who is giving the orders for it.
This is why we, at our own local levels, need to shame individuals we know who behaved so awfully. Whether done publicly or privately, they need to feel the sting when we tell them they can never be trusted, ever again.
She is still advocating for school mandates for kids in this article. She isn't stopping. She has no insight into what she has done & continues to do. She's in the cult.
It is truly a war, and the stakes were high. The power to take away someone's livelihood, educational prospects, and social network in the name of "the power to require vaccination" has real and tangible consequences. Not just social consequences. Financial consequences are a big part of the damage done.
When the war is over (and its not over yet) WE DON'T give amnesty.
We give no quarter.
They would not give us amnesty if the roles were reversed.
Hence any talk of amnesty should be filed under "it's never going to happen"
They must never have their hands on the levers of political power EVER AGAIN.
And I agree with an assessment that declared her lament as nothing more than a political maneuver to bring suburban moms back under the DEM fold. It didn't work - the mom backlash has been full throttle and is beautiful to see a week before the midterms.
NO Dear JIK, The data? Where does it come from? Well sir, NOT from the CDC, NOT from the NIH, NOT from he Executive branch of the government, NOT from ANY federal governmental organization that I know of. So let us know, sir which Federal organization IS telling the truth? And just who IS actually telling the whole truth and not suffering both public and private humiliations and threats, and not getting banned from social media platforms?
The data is being mined by concerned people who smell a rat and are informed enough and tenacious enough to keep digging for answers until they find the truth and then are risking their livelihoods and their reputations to get that truth out to the public because they understand the true nature of the war are in.
No, too much damage has been done, too many lives lost, millions, too many lives left destroyed by debilitating jab side effects, millions, too many families torn asunder, too many grieving parents, too many homes lost, too many businesses lost, too many childhoods forever damaged.
No, "I'm sorry" is NOT enough, not for this one. The understanding that this kind of evil behavior has serious consequences and will never be be tolerated again, ever, must be understood by all of the peoples of the world. And how? By giving to these perpetrators the same measure of mercy that they gave to their victims. No, no amnesty, not now, not ever.
Look, I'm not after unsuspecting and trusting people who took the jab thinking they were doing the right think. That includes my entire family. No thinking person would be. Rather one should have sympathy for those who were so easily manipulated or coerced into making that choice.
The people who need to be prosecuted are those who conducted the research and deliberately lied to people of the world. As well as all of the organizations, mainstream media, and influencers of all kinds who either coerced or brainwashed the population into taking it. This injection was developed as a depopulation tool. It was designed for the purpose of killing off a majority of the world's population and to install nano technology devices for the ultimate control of those who survive. You cant still be ignorant of this fact.
You are usurping God's role! Forgiveness is the Lord's, neither you or I are empowered to forgive crimes against humanity. Render unto Caesar what is of Caesar----we are empowered to punish crimes against humanity.
Rae, I've read the reply JIK has given to this post of yours about an hour ago. and here is my humble advice. Some people are not thinking clearly and are not able to distill nuances of the written posts and only hear what they want to hear based upon their own fears or fantasies. Others are folks who actually just "get off" on argumentative interactions because that raises cortisol levels in the brain along with another whole cascade of brain chemicals. These people are addicted to their own brain chemicals and need their fix. Or they are deliberately looking to cause consternation among posters because they get a buzz from that too. You may be pounding sand on this one. Sometimes its best to let these folks just think what they want to think... and let it go.
It is also possible that there are "plants" paid by corrupt elements, with a goal of ratcheting up the crazy-factor in order to discredit the truth. Ignoring them is more productive. Maybe calling them out and suggesting they tell their supervisors they've been noticed(?) ...a thought.
Entirely possible. El Gato Malo has the right to ban JIK from additional posting should he decide the disruptively repetitive posting has gone on long enough. Its a private site and we are just guests here, so not our call. As guests we can also choose to just not read or engage any further posts from people who are either not mentally/emotionally OK or are obviously purposefully disruptive. I enjoy reading and responding to many of the folks who post on Bad Cattitude, so my choice is to skip right over and NOT read any further posts from this person and decline any further interaction. JIK can pound sand.
Oh, well we can start with Fauci, who knew what was going on. All the people he paid for his 'scientific consensus'. The media paid by government. The social media companies. Celebrities who were paid off.
You're the only one assuming we're talking about people who were coerced into the jab, such as children.
Good luck with that. These evil doers are incapable of changing and seeing the light. They are decietful, will feign contrition, to convince people like you that they should be allowed to survive (so they may resume their sin at a later, more convenient time for them).

A person can be forgiven, but also still be held accountable for their actions. We shouldnтАЩt take joy in punishment, but it is necessary when someone brings harm to others by flouting the rules of society. Hopefully these punishments can provide an opportunity for true repentance.
Emily is not the one who gets to declare amnesty, we are.
And she is just bringing it up because she fears retribution.
One might wonder if she was high enough to be on the list of people that government paid to push the vaccines. I would certainly be fearful of having my name on that list with what we're seeing happening in the world today.
i doubt it.
i suspect it was garden variety tribal pressure to conform and signal.
Bad Cat, I suspect the list of those who willingly took pay to push the government narrative no matter the actual evidence is quite a lengthy one.
This bribe brought to you by Pfizer.
IтАЩm thinking itтАЩs not huge. A few well placed paid people/corporations & rest follow.
Exactly. This is typical leftist journalist behavior. She knew there would be a feeding frenzy of her peers should she not join in the hate.
That being said, the Biden admin via the CARES act did send millions to these publications.
every broadway producer with a (formerly) active show in a theater got $10 million to tide them over. i'm pretty sure there were some strings attached
Frightening how coordinated all of this was.
But that's just a conspiracy theory. /s
Really?!
Any documentation (or even evidence)of that?

Thanks for the backstory. I hope we can secure an accounting at the source -- one way or another.

Haha, I was just about to cite him as an example. They paid the Queen of Economcs from Brown. How does she get published in The Atlantic? Another sizable payoff was made.
They asked him to do the PSAs....who's "they"? Give us the names of those people. Otherwise, you are still on "their" team.
In Australia, among the top repressive governments on par with the ChiComs, that's who.
So make the list of Aussie officials as you like.
Yes. We also need to know more of the 'they' as in who were the social media influencers, podcasters, academics, MD's, celebrities, athletes, 'journalists', etc. who were literally paid out of DHS or wherever to push this stuff?

They paid second rate TikTok performers, so it's not out of bounds.
Biden Administration paid taxpayers dollar$ to comedians to make fun of the hesitant. Yep. We paid them to bully us.
Look at her Twitter bio. She was one of Time's 100 most influential people in 2022.
in fairness, "time" is NEVER right about that, so...
Why did Oster write the article?
Why did The Atlantic publish it?
Why did she use the world amnesty instead of forgiveness?
She's clearly writing on behalf of a group not just herself.
It wasn't a confession. It was a scold.
Not a word of regret or contrition.
Why wouldn't Oster want to see her paymaster get amnesty?
Of course she wants them pardoned.
She, like the other Covidians, will never ask for forgiveness because they don't want to be forgiven. They want to do it all over again. I honestly believe these people genuinely don't the pandemic to go away. In many ways, the Covid pandemic makes them who they are.

ItтАЩs more like who THEY--The Hierarchy Exploiting You--want you to think is influential.

This is a social war.
A war between the Narcissist and The Normal.
Between Authoritarians and The individual.
Between The Left and the Right.
Between the Progressive and the Conservative.

I'll declare amnesty for her and the others on the 1st of Neverary. Sentencing WILL occur on the Ides of March.
1st of Neverary....love that.
Heh, thanks! Wish I could take credit for it but I heard it long ago on the Internets.
Amnesty sounds like another form of privilege, doesn't it?

Forgiveness requires confession and restitution. So far---the Covidians are not confessing nor have they offered restitution for their evil ways.
COVIDIANS, very good, I like that.
"A shitty fake version of the real thing."
as with middle-class liberals, like the above. they're just status-seeking robots, not real people.

The CDC's version of an apology was a promise to just go faster and harder next time. And they do promise a next time. It's not over.

Hi again JIK, Feel better now?
Yes, because "we" is a word for a group of people in which I am member.
Stop hyperventilating.
The time for talk is over. Spending 2 years under the thumb of a totalitarian regime has opened my eyes.
Come 11-8-22, kick them out of office. And never forget what they did.
If we can't do that all is lost, the republic is no more.
Who are you talking to? If it's me, I can give you a list of crimes.

Yes mass formation psychosis. Like Stockholm syndrome, but on a massive level.
I want peace.
But they asked for war.
We will give it to them.
They get what want.
Sorry.
I have a different view of the situation.
How many evil men should be killed?
All of them.
If a few innocents are in the way ...then they shouldn't have consorted with the evil.
If you are so pius, you would know that consorting with the damned will not get you anywhere...but the same fate as them.
Good luck with that. These evil doers are incapable of changing and seeing the light. They are decietful, will feign contrition, to convince people like you that they should be allowed to survive (so they may resume their sin at a later, more convenient time for them).
