That’s because the US media, at this point, actively supports tyranny. It’s where their bread is buttered (plus many of them, as individuals, have totalitarian streaks of their own). They are literally the state media, little different from China’s.
Worse than China. In China, they know the state controls the media. In China, they know they don't have free speech rights, or rights against unreasonable search and seizure. We still pretend the media is free and that the Constitution isn't just a piece of paper.
Absolutely. It's sometimes hard to believe how slowly, but historically, Americans have been slow to anger as a whole. This time around though, we have a media that is trying to quell dissent and "techno-media" that have been censoring at every turn making it difficult for the truth to come out. But, just as in the days before technology, once it really starts it will be almost impossible to stop. I've had enough of the madness. It's turned into something so hellish I can't even fathom where it goes if we don't wise up, turn our backs on fear and say NO at every turn. I'd rather die of the next "virus" than live in the world these MONSTERS are trying to create.
Not exactly true. Yes, our government doesn't follow the Constitution and our freedom of speech doesn't really exist - but people BELIEVE it exists. This gives our criminal government a stumbling block.
People will start to realize that what they thought their rights were, don't actually exist. We'll hit a turning point - will our population roll over and accept it, or will they reassert themselves?
In truth, the Constitution hasn't been followed in over 50 years - our nation had to amend the Constitution to ban alcohol, but not pot, not LSD, not heroin. People thought "well, that's acceptable - those are BAD THINGS" but STATES could have banned it, but our federal government did. They have no right to do this.
It's not "at this point" - our media has ALWAYS been the PR arm of our government. Nothing has changed for them - YOU have changed and for the better. You're recognizing your chains.
The media dutifully reported that the Gulf of Tonkin Incident was real. That was a false flag, and that was the justification for the Vietnam war. It happened in 1964.
Our media has always been like this. You see them lying now, look back at what they've lied about before. Find the weapons of mass destruction program in Iraq yet?
You may not be aware, but this is the real reason we made the internet. I've know it's been propaganda for 30 years. We want you to communicate. No matter how smart you MIGHT (foolishly) think we are - we are complete idiots when there's 1000's brains thinking. For a long time, they've been corrupted by being fed false information. When they all have real information, see what they will do.
We realize we're stupid. We're idiot savants. The Internet is nothing more than a platform to allow meritocracy.
Speaking of the old puppy torturer, you’re not going to believe what Fauci told MSNBC yesterday. Responding to a question about a new expose of the NIH’s bioweapons money-laundering operation, Fauci said “The Intercept reporting is completely misleading, because ‘gain-of-function’ … is a completely meaningless term[.]”
Hahahahahaha! In other words, after trying — and failing — to redefine what “gain of function” means on the NIH’s website a few minutes before he had to testify before Congress, Fauci is now arguing that the term doesn’t even mean ANYTHING. So never mind! I guess all those laws BANNING gain-of-function research were meaningless, too, which explains a lot if you think about it.
He’s not going to lawyer his slimy, rat-faced way out of this one.
I want to read the book so much but I am scared that the hatred I feel for him will get worse and I will get an ulcer. I hear it is very disgusting what he has been involved in.
I want to read it too but I am an animal lover, rescuer/ animal foster parent, board member and I don’t think I can handle graphic accounts of animal torture undertaken by this pickle faced monster.
No, he shouldn't escape justice so easily. He and some others should be indicted for RICO felonies and convicted. Then the EUA immunity enjoyed by Pfizer et al will be null and void, and the class action suits will begin.
I feel the same way. I have always been a loving soul but as all this comes raining down on the world, to us common people, I am so angry and filled with frustration at the loss of lives needlessly worldwide and now with the jab. Every day, there is some new crap unfolding. I mean, we are only human, now much can we bear. I hate bloodthirst generally speaking but I am finding each day brings me closer to turning into a Succubus ready to go after those who have wrought this hell on earth and destroy them utterly until not even one ash of them is found anywhere on earth. I think all that is happening has changed us to some degree permanently.
No offense to anyone who doesn't believe in a God/Creator etc. But I do have a belief system. And even in the Holy Book there are accounts of people begging God for vengeance on evil people. I think it's justified to want judgement for these MONSTERS in the world. There comes a point (imo) when things become so incredibly evil that the only way out of it is to expose it, identify and punish those who are perpetrating it on the world. And this seems to be one of those times. I want to see every one of these monsters rotting in a Supermax for the rest of their despicable lives. At a minimum.
"they" dont want us to get any ideas. what they have underestimated is that the american people will do the same thing should/when the time comes. this is the only power we have, en masse to say no and have our voices heard and resist. this tyranny/big tech/AI/gain of function/biological treachery/the great reset/soylent green in the making ala gates in the future/surviellance of bank accounts/vax passports/has to end and we can do it but it has to be by volume. we wont stand for this. keep fighting europe, keep fighting/slam the bastards into the ground.
I still remember the movie Soylent Green. Terrifying and made a huge impression on me. Ever since covid appeared I have found myself thinking of that movie.
What's amazing is it seems to be all forms of media (National & local TV, even local newspapers). How does that work? Is there something about the profession that attracts collectivist minded people? I'm flabbergasted.
What we have are locally-located but large media owned newspapers and TV stations.
That's why people have been able to create videos of hundreds of "newscasters" (teleprompter readers is more apt) saying the exact same thing. (Or in print the exact same message.)
In the US, local (relatively) independent radio and TV stations largely disappeared after the Federal government relaxed ownership requirements (1980s I think). This led to a huge consolidation of ownership and basically a homogenization of programming, music and otherwise. Even three decades ago, I could drive halfway across the country and a given FM station in City X (I listened to "classical rock" back then, or "smooth jazz") was indistinguishable from the Washington D.C. market, right down to the voices of the announcers. To a great extent I think the same occurred in print media. Even with the advent of the internet, it's not so much that there is "censorship," but its equivalent has happened, as most news and much other information is sourced from a few centralized sources. There is very little original product, except from plankton-sized entities like here.
You are right. Things started changing in 1981 under the Reagan Administration. By 1987 the "Fairness Doctrine" was eliminated and in 1996 under the Clinton Presidency the Telecommunications Act was passed. I would imagine most of the G7 countries followed suit.
Sort of. My theory is that the heavy indoctrination to which they are subject in the joke that is “j-school” can only be endured by either the most vapid or the true believers (or the wannabe TV “stars” who will say anything to get their face on the “news”).
Gah, i could use this to vomit after every meal. Great find! Adding to my collection that was started with “the great deception” document (have no idea who created it but very thankful they did)
I met someone recently who told me had been at a large protest in Washington state. He called some media outlets to ask them why there was no one there covering it. He said one of them straight up told him that the governor had told the media not to cover it. I don’t k ow if that is true, but it is very troubling.
Very fortunately, US corporate media, sponsored by Jeffrey Epstein loving, and depopulation obsessed BIll Gates, and intimidated by George Soros, thus repeating their lies in unison, is rapidly becoming completely distrusted.
We are winning everywhere! In the USA first and foremost, as the legacy media is no longer an indicator of public opinion. Infowars, substack, twitter you name it, we are invadint #GetVaccinated tag, getting more and more people etc.
We have a federal structure in the USA and it helps reject tyranny. I have not been this optimistic in MONTHS.
As long as we can still read sites like this is real time, the tyranny has not totally consolidated its grip. I guess they don't want to be too obvious, at least not at first.
Thank you Thank you Thank you for this post showing the protests around the world. Just like the United States, Canada is not protesting as far as I know. I am wondering if the people in Europe are protesting because World War 11 was fought on their soil and they understand what can happen if you risk losing your freedom. Perhaps this explains why North America is so complacent. We sent our troops to fight this war but we never were attacked, with the exception of Pearl Harbor.
Nope, Helen, WW2 started in Austria/Germany - and we are
the least who notice what is happening at the moment. There was a really big protest yesterday in Vienna, but people on the streets were only about 2.5 % of the whole population. But I have to admit that this was probably the biggest protest so far - many, many more attendees than ever before. I guess everything takes time but the new Apartheid and upcoming vaccine mandate in Austria (with parallel reduction of vaccine validity down to 4 months only) seems to wake up more and more people. But generally speaking, no - we have not learned anything from our past - especially in German speaking countries, I guess.
Thank-you for your insight regarding Austria/ Germany. So much for my theory. I guess we never really learn from our mistakes. And at this point most of the generation that fought in that war are no longer with us. Living in Canada and watching what is happening in Austria and it appears soon to be in Germany is terrifying. Kind regards.
All the best to you, Helen. I guess living in Canada is not much better than living in Austria at the moment. But this whole mess shall pass soon. I am absolutely convinced.
I hope you are right. Canada has a huge rate of vaccination. Larger than Austria and Germany and yet they are not satisfied and want the numbers higher. Pure madness. In my province we have had "vaccine passports" since September. I am no longer allowed in restaurants, theaters, indoor pools or sports events. I am the only unvaccinated person in my extended family of 20 and I am not allowed to discuss anything covid with any of them. It's a closed subject with them and they are "moving on". It's the reason I have become involved with several substack authors. It has helped me a great deal knowing I am not alone in my beliefs. I also love the fact that there people from all over the world that feel the same.
I feel you, Helen. It‘s the same in nearly every Western country. Even Sweden, who managed to keep hospitalizations and fatalities this year quite low (after a big spike of deaths by the beginning of 2020) without any cruel mandates (no lockdowns, no masks, no vaccine coercion) and was „the“ most humane and evidence-based example in Europe seems to switch sides. They will install vaccine passports by Dec 1 for events over 100 people, although their „numbers“ are absolutely stable and great compared to the rest of Europe. Justification? Rising cases in neighbouring countries. It is devastating. And yet this is the beginning of the end of the whole narrative. Stay true to yourself and shine your light.
Funny how no one thinks to stop and ask why, nearly two years into the pandemic, how very few children or indeed, healthy adults, have fallen seriously ill or dead from the dreaded virus. By the way, happy birthday SARS-CoV-2. By most accounts, especially the lab release hypothesis, the virus started doing its thing almost exactly 2 years ago.
They'll likely spin it as some new variant if case numbers shoot up at the same time that kids start having nasty reactions to the shot. It probably won't wake many Canadians up, but it might get the rest of the world talking about us.
another hostage in BC...i can't imagine that my ancestors who first came to this country in 1644 would have put this much faith in govt. it's not just the CBC...it's BC news as well. it's simply sickening what is happening. protestors are portrayed in a negative light, even vilified, and there is no discourse counter to the main stream narrative, no debate, no presentation of the studies coming forward re: vax harms, no stories as to what is occurring in the rest of the world....
You're bang on about BC news. My partner watches Global news every night and I have to physically restrain myself from screaming at the TV. Remember the only large protest about covid that took place in Vancouver near the hospital? They still air it on their newscasts in order to discredit anyone who dares to think differently. And yet when Extinction Rebellion protests happen and tie up traffic for hours they are given a pass.
oh, and since that protest near the hospital, now legislation in place barring protests near essential services and schools to 'protect the people.' and, while everyone is currently distracted by flooding (and out panic buying and hoarding), govt quietly passes legislation justifying c19 vax mandates for public service employees (too bad, so sad if you are fired for saying 'no' to being part of the experiment - it's 'just cause').
every time i hear BH, i want to vomit. same with Dix and Farnworth. they have already expressed concerns re: covid 'cases' increasing in light of disaster in lower mainland. um, ok. sure. didn't happen with the floods and roads washed out in the cariboo last spring, nor with the disastrous fires this past summer. we do, however, get to bear witness, yet again, to more often than not, the worst of human nature, rather than the best. go Canada!
You know you can just cross the border and kiss Canada goodbye, right? Just walk across the invisible line to escape the invisible boogieman virus. Simple.
yup. i wanted to get out of here and move to Mexico. not sure now when or if that will ever be a possibility. even with the highways shut down here in BC due to flooding and landslides, people could not even cross the border for an alternate (albeit, much longer) route to return to their homes without being uninjected.
It's nice to see protests against restrictions, passes and other measures, and I hate to sprinkle a little rain on the notion that big numbers of people all over are revolting. They're not. Despite the crowds in the photos, the numbers at most of these demonstrationsare relatively modest compared to the local population. Most of the people everywhere are still on board with the narrative. Still, it's great that many are resisting.
Incidentally, the big Paris demonstration today wasn't about passes or covid. It was an anti-sexism and anti-violence rally. However, in Guadaloupe. a French territory in the Caribbean, there have been several nights of very violent anti-pass protests, and special French forces have been sent in to try to keep things calm.
Keep in mind that most revolutions aren’t started by “most” of the people. It’s always a minority. The American Revolution started to coalesce after roughly 70 men started the Committee of Correspondence. The original Sons of Liberty were a tiny group. All against the mightiest super power in existence at the time. Revolutions start small. Perhaps this is the beginning.
The people protesting, their numbers, are *representative* of greater numbers and support. You don’t think the ones who show up to protest are the *only* ones supporting that cause, do you?
How many of us in here support the cause? How many of us went to one of those protests? QED
These protests aren’t dozens of people; they’re thousands or tens of thousands of people. And *every* unvaxxed person, and increasing numbers of vaxxed people, support the cause.
Our numbers are in the tens of millions in the US alone (at least 20% are unvaxxed = 66 million), hundreds of millions worldwide.
Of course I realize there are many people who are sympathizers, but who don't show up at demonstrations. And some of the demo's have impressive numbers, as in Vienna and Brussels today. That's great.
But it's clear right now that a very large majority of people in most countries enthusiastically supports restrictions, even the most idiotic restrictions. Governments know this.
So to get policies to change, demonstrations just won't do the trick. What you need really, is a general strike, or several big simultaneous strikes by employees of key sectors. Hasn't happened yet, but hope that it will.
A very large majority? What would that be, 75%? You think 75% of people in most countries support restrictions, and not only support them but do so *enthusiastically*? And do so enthusiastically even over the most idiotic restrictions?
I don't know how you arrived at that conclusion. Are there numbers somewhere to support the "very large majority of people" claim?
What governments know is that, so far, they haven't had to deal with armed resistance. So they are the only ones on the gridiron right now. But if they mistake our tolerance for their long train of Abuses and Usurpations so far for agreement with and support for them, they will pay a price, first at the polls.
A very large majority is 60%. In most elections, that's considered a landslide.
A recent example of wide public support for govt policies was Switzerland's vote on its 'Covid Law' last September. This law basically gives the govt blanket emergency powers to deal with the epidemic. To pass, the law needed a majority of the popular vote and a majority of cantons (similar to US states). It was approved by 64.9% of the voters, and by all the cantons.
Fact is that In Europe, lockdowns, masks, vaxes and the vax passport regimentation schemes have won very widespread acceptance. Sure, there have been protests, for example, many thousands every Saturday across France for months. Government didn't budge, and most people didn't care.
Same indifference in other countries.
When you see violent demonstrations, as in Holland or Austria last week, this usually means the govt will increasingly have the sympathy of its voter base.
Will the tide turn? Who knows. But for a clue we can look once more to Switzerland. This coming Sunday the people will vote again on the Covid Law, because over 100,000 petitioners (out of a Swiss population of 6.8 million) have put forward a motion to repeal a few parts of the law.
Same hurdle: needs a majority of the people plus a majority of the cantons.
Many people around the world are watching, so let's see what happens.
I think 60% being considered a landslide is merely an artifact of historical electoral precedent. I don't think it's necessarily applicable to protests. At the US presidential level, a landslide is defined (more or less) by the number of electoral votes rather than the popular vote (especially since there's no such thing as a "popular vote" for president). 60% of 538 electoral votes is just 323. With 270 needed to win, 323 sure doesn't *feel* like a "very large majority".
By contrast, it could be argued that achieving 75% is necessary to qualify as a "very large majority" given that the US Constitution requires a minimum of 75% of the States' assent in order to amend the Constitution.
At least 75% of NFL owners have to agree in order to change the schedule or to add a new team.
Election to the MLB Hall of Fame requires a minimum 75% vote.
Scaling down from 75%, in order to convict and remove an impeached federal official, the prosecution needs 67%. Even that could be argued to be the minimum necessary for a "very large majority".
Agree that these tactics are more impactful, but they are happening too, just under reported; see the dockworkers strikes in Triest and this past week in Rotterdam. The worse it gets, the more they will happen. The sad saps who don't have this kind of power and can only show up to peaceful protests are scary enough that they are massively under reported as well. I have been to the major ones in the Netherlands and the numbers are reduced by a factor of 10 if they make the news at all. The numbers are massive for this tiny country, they dwarf demonstrations in recent years by 10s of thousands. It can't be ignored forever.
One has to wonder what it’ll look like in the US if push comes to shove, as it has in the places where serious protests are erupting. The Corp elite in this country spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars on supporting BLM protests to keep Americans focused on a dubious campaign to right wrongs of the past, and keep our minds OFF the tyrannical imposition of Covid executive orders that are utterly incongruous with the actual threat. Will we continue to be cowed by the full court press of ubiquitous propaganda or will we stop abandoning our responsibilities and turn to face the onslaught with a ferocious full court press of our own?
Next question is whether that even matters anymore? The revolving door of corporate lackeys on both sides of the aisle are in near endless supply, churned out by the two major parties, both of which are completely corrupted and devoid of any real opposition to their prostitution to the Board Room overlords who send them on their next trick.
We need younger representatives in government, ones who have the cojones to stand up and fight. The boomers who have been in government for decades, sucking at the lobbyist teets, need to go. And I say this as a "senior citizen."
I would agree with you but the younger generation was wholly given over to public school indoctrination centers for their entire lives. And now they want the preschools to be state-run which means even more people who know nothing other than Marxist/collectivist ideas. We are screwed.
Younger, older, black, white, male, female, gay, straight, etc. is not an answer. We need competent humans who believe in the Constitution. We need to term limit them to get rid of the careerism. Mayor Pete and Ocasio- Cortez are young. Do they ring your chimes?
Of course not, but that's all you're going to get from the Democrat party. The only option is to work with the Republicans, even if you don't agree with all their positions. It starts at the local level. I'm pro-choice (with limits) and I don't do religion. I'm willing to overlook their position on abortion and constant references to scripture to advance an America First agenda, and support those candidates.
Note the start of the article “ Tens of thousands of people, many of them far-right supporters” :) :) :)
This cracks me up. Zactly what is a “far right” supporter? It’s like saying a whole bunch of idk whats are protesting. This cuts to it well, it is like stating a bunch of not normal or reasonable folks are protesting. The elitist media even when they do report something have no care to report news. Their desire is to spread constant propaganda in support of the foolish pandemic proceedings to date.
We were about 200k, I guess. And one of the most aggressive and propagandist journalists in Austria had to admit, that „an extremely high number of people“ attended and that he was highly „irritated“ that these were not only „right-wing people but also leftists, old, young, ‚greens’ and conservatives“. But well, this epiphany did not last long 😂.
I guess I can tell you more in February 😄. If I am then still allowed to use the internet 🤣. I was „invited“ to my „personal jab appointment“ by the very caring Mayor of Vienna two days ago and I am not sure how they will react when I miss this very important appointment 😉. (If that whole thing wasn‘t so spooky it would be absolutely ridiculous 🤣.)
That’s because the US media, at this point, actively supports tyranny. It’s where their bread is buttered (plus many of them, as individuals, have totalitarian streaks of their own). They are literally the state media, little different from China’s.
Worse than China. In China, they know the state controls the media. In China, they know they don't have free speech rights, or rights against unreasonable search and seizure. We still pretend the media is free and that the Constitution isn't just a piece of paper.

no free lunch but i will always believe in our Constitution. It is worth fighting for.
Not exactly true. Yes, our government doesn't follow the Constitution and our freedom of speech doesn't really exist - but people BELIEVE it exists. This gives our criminal government a stumbling block.

I intellectually understood the phrase "the Revolution will not be televised" but it wasn't until this year that I really *got* it
Oh we spreading the mews alright. Here's a tangy tidbit from https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/-coffee-and-covid-saturday-november-5cd

He’s not going to lawyer his slimy, rat-faced way out of this one.
he is a fucking liar. pls excuse the swear word i just detest fauci so much.
I'm reading Robert F. Kennedy, Jr's new book, The Real Anthony Fauci. I didn't think I could hate Fauci more. I was wrong.
I want to read the book so much but I am scared that the hatred I feel for him will get worse and I will get an ulcer. I hear it is very disgusting what he has been involved in.
I want to read it too but I am an animal lover, rescuer/ animal foster parent, board member and I don’t think I can handle graphic accounts of animal torture undertaken by this pickle faced monster.
me either. i would rip his heart out and choke him on it.
I like you even more now.
Yes, you can handle it. We all need to know what we are up against and cannot keep our heads in the sand. Kennedy's book is very important.
It's only one chapter, easy to skip over.
I'll be honest, it is ulcer-inducing.
it is, its all stealing my soul.
No, he shouldn't escape justice so easily. He and some others should be indicted for RICO felonies and convicted. Then the EUA immunity enjoyed by Pfizer et al will be null and void, and the class action suits will begin.
I feel the same way.

Yes, I feel the same way. I need to pray more and perhaps talk about this more, try to resolve and move forward focus on good things
agreed.
I had forgotten about that book. Off to Amazon!
My favorite line!
"they" dont want us to get any ideas. what they have underestimated is that the american people will do the same thing should/when the time comes. this is the only power we have, en masse to say no and have our voices heard and resist. this tyranny/big tech/AI/gain of function/biological treachery/the great reset/soylent green in the making ala gates in the future/surviellance of bank accounts/vax passports/has to end and we can do it but it has to be by volume. we wont stand for this. keep fighting europe, keep fighting/slam the bastards into the ground.
I still remember the movie Soylent Green. Terrifying and made a huge impression on me. Ever since covid appeared I have found myself thinking of that movie.
Me too Helen, me too.
I think Dystopia arrived some time ago now…
What's amazing is it seems to be all forms of media (National & local TV, even local newspapers). How does that work? Is there something about the profession that attracts collectivist minded people? I'm flabbergasted.
Look who's paying for advertisements on these channels. Dollars to donuts that it's a slew of big pharma commercials........
Bought it you with Pfizer’s big steaming pile of cash.
There isn't any local news.
What we have are locally-located but large media owned newspapers and TV stations.
That's why people have been able to create videos of hundreds of "newscasters" (teleprompter readers is more apt) saying the exact same thing. (Or in print the exact same message.)

You are right. Things started changing in 1981 under the Reagan Administration. By 1987 the "Fairness Doctrine" was eliminated and in 1996 under the Clinton Presidency the Telecommunications Act was passed. I would imagine most of the G7 countries followed suit.
Sort of. My theory is that the heavy indoctrination to which they are subject in the joke that is “j-school” can only be endured by either the most vapid or the true believers (or the wannabe TV “stars” who will say anything to get their face on the “news”).
Maybe this video on the Trusted New initiative answers question

Gah, i could use this to vomit after every meal. Great find! Adding to my collection that was started with “the great deception” document (have no idea who created it but very thankful they did)

I met someone recently who told me had been at a large protest in Washington state. He called some media outlets to ask them why there was no one there covering it. He said one of them straight up told him that the governor had told the media not to cover it. I don’t k ow if that is true, but it is very troubling.
Don’t remember if I got this from our gato friend himself or some corner in twitter but it drives the point home.

"US media"

Maybe because of findings like this: Covid vax doubles the risk of acute coronary syndrome?

WOW! But everyone needs the shot. This is crazy.
Very fortunately, US corporate media, sponsored by Jeffrey Epstein loving, and depopulation obsessed BIll Gates, and intimidated by George Soros, thus repeating their lies in unison, is rapidly becoming completely distrusted.
We are winning everywhere! In the USA first and foremost, as the legacy media is no longer an indicator of public opinion. Infowars, substack, twitter you name it, we are invadint #GetVaccinated tag, getting more and more people etc.
We have a federal structure in the USA and it helps reject tyranny. I have not been this optimistic in MONTHS.
One could assume the bad cat is organizing a PR meeting soon.
As long as we can still read sites like this is real time, the tyranny has not totally consolidated its grip. I guess they don't want to be too obvious, at least not at first.
Thank you Thank you Thank you for this post showing the protests around the world. Just like the United States, Canada is not protesting as far as I know. I am wondering if the people in Europe are protesting because World War 11 was fought on their soil and they understand what can happen if you risk losing your freedom. Perhaps this explains why North America is so complacent. We sent our troops to fight this war but we never were attacked, with the exception of Pearl Harbor.
Nope, Helen, WW2 started in Austria/Germany - and we are
the least who notice what is happening at the moment. There was a really big protest yesterday in Vienna, but people on the streets were only about 2.5 % of the whole population. But I have to admit that this was probably the biggest protest so far - many, many more attendees than ever before. I guess everything takes time but the new Apartheid and upcoming vaccine mandate in Austria (with parallel reduction of vaccine validity down to 4 months only) seems to wake up more and more people. But generally speaking, no - we have not learned anything from our past - especially in German speaking countries, I guess.
Thank-you for your insight regarding Austria/ Germany. So much for my theory. I guess we never really learn from our mistakes. And at this point most of the generation that fought in that war are no longer with us. Living in Canada and watching what is happening in Austria and it appears soon to be in Germany is terrifying. Kind regards.
All the best to you, Helen. I guess living in Canada is not much better than living in Austria at the moment. But this whole mess shall pass soon. I am absolutely convinced.
I hope you are right. Canada has a huge rate of vaccination. Larger than Austria and Germany and yet they are not satisfied and want the numbers higher. Pure madness. In my province we have had "vaccine passports" since September. I am no longer allowed in restaurants, theaters, indoor pools or sports events. I am the only unvaccinated person in my extended family of 20 and I am not allowed to discuss anything covid with any of them. It's a closed subject with them and they are "moving on". It's the reason I have become involved with several substack authors. It has helped me a great deal knowing I am not alone in my beliefs. I also love the fact that there people from all over the world that feel the same.
i am exactly in the same place as you. my family thinks i'm nuts. luckily, i don't have to live with them :-)
I feel you, Helen. It‘s the same in nearly every Western country. Even Sweden, who managed to keep hospitalizations and fatalities this year quite low (after a big spike of deaths by the beginning of 2020) without any cruel mandates (no lockdowns, no masks, no vaccine coercion) and was „the“ most humane and evidence-based example in Europe seems to switch sides. They will install vaccine passports by Dec 1 for events over 100 people, although their „numbers“ are absolutely stable and great compared to the rest of Europe. Justification? Rising cases in neighbouring countries. It is devastating. And yet this is the beginning of the end of the whole narrative. Stay true to yourself and shine your light.
Funny how no one thinks to stop and ask why, nearly two years into the pandemic, how very few children or indeed, healthy adults, have fallen seriously ill or dead from the dreaded virus. By the way, happy birthday SARS-CoV-2. By most accounts, especially the lab release hypothesis, the virus started doing its thing almost exactly 2 years ago.
Ahh. The only instance in all of human history where it's okay to say "fuck you!" to a 2-year-old. We truly live in interesting times.
They'll likely spin it as some new variant if case numbers shoot up at the same time that kids start having nasty reactions to the shot. It probably won't wake many Canadians up, but it might get the rest of the world talking about us.
God help us.
I wouldn't be surprised if by next spring Canada will be vaccinating new borns. Get 'em when they're young.
The Canadian charter was always a bit of a joke, it comes with enough exceptions to render most of it useless.
another hostage in BC...i can't imagine that my ancestors who first came to this country in 1644 would have put this much faith in govt. it's not just the CBC...it's BC news as well. it's simply sickening what is happening. protestors are portrayed in a negative light, even vilified, and there is no discourse counter to the main stream narrative, no debate, no presentation of the studies coming forward re: vax harms, no stories as to what is occurring in the rest of the world....
You're bang on about BC news. My partner watches Global news every night and I have to physically restrain myself from screaming at the TV. Remember the only large protest about covid that took place in Vancouver near the hospital? They still air it on their newscasts in order to discredit anyone who dares to think differently. And yet when Extinction Rebellion protests happen and tie up traffic for hours they are given a pass.
oh, and since that protest near the hospital, now legislation in place barring protests near essential services and schools to 'protect the people.' and, while everyone is currently distracted by flooding (and out panic buying and hoarding), govt quietly passes legislation justifying c19 vax mandates for public service employees (too bad, so sad if you are fired for saying 'no' to being part of the experiment - it's 'just cause').
every time i hear BH, i want to vomit. same with Dix and Farnworth. they have already expressed concerns re: covid 'cases' increasing in light of disaster in lower mainland. um, ok. sure. didn't happen with the floods and roads washed out in the cariboo last spring, nor with the disastrous fires this past summer. we do, however, get to bear witness, yet again, to more often than not, the worst of human nature, rather than the best. go Canada!
You know you can just cross the border and kiss Canada goodbye, right? Just walk across the invisible line to escape the invisible boogieman virus. Simple.
yup. i wanted to get out of here and move to Mexico. not sure now when or if that will ever be a possibility. even with the highways shut down here in BC due to flooding and landslides, people could not even cross the border for an alternate (albeit, much longer) route to return to their homes without being uninjected.
Exactly.
Couldn't attend today in Calgary, unfortunately. Beautiful sight though. Stand fast and resist til the end.
As a former Calgarian I am heartened to hear that you all are starting to get with the program. Don’t quit, make Alberta great again!
next time attend please. you are needed to stand with your people and for freedom.
Absolutely! I have gone to most weekly rallies in Calgary but was unable today.
Good man and patriot!
It's nice to see protests against restrictions, passes and other measures, and I hate to sprinkle a little rain on the notion that big numbers of people all over are revolting. They're not. Despite the crowds in the photos, the numbers at most of these demonstrationsare relatively modest compared to the local population. Most of the people everywhere are still on board with the narrative. Still, it's great that many are resisting.
Incidentally, the big Paris demonstration today wasn't about passes or covid. It was an anti-sexism and anti-violence rally. However, in Guadaloupe. a French territory in the Caribbean, there have been several nights of very violent anti-pass protests, and special French forces have been sent in to try to keep things calm.
Keep in mind that most revolutions aren’t started by “most” of the people. It’s always a minority. The American Revolution started to coalesce after roughly 70 men started the Committee of Correspondence. The original Sons of Liberty were a tiny group. All against the mightiest super power in existence at the time. Revolutions start small. Perhaps this is the beginning.
Correct and approximately 1/3 of the population supported it at the beginning. The rest had to be woken up.
The people protesting, their numbers, are *representative* of greater numbers and support. You don’t think the ones who show up to protest are the *only* ones supporting that cause, do you?
How many of us in here support the cause? How many of us went to one of those protests? QED
These protests aren’t dozens of people; they’re thousands or tens of thousands of people. And *every* unvaxxed person, and increasing numbers of vaxxed people, support the cause.
Our numbers are in the tens of millions in the US alone (at least 20% are unvaxxed = 66 million), hundreds of millions worldwide.
Of course I realize there are many people who are sympathizers, but who don't show up at demonstrations. And some of the demo's have impressive numbers, as in Vienna and Brussels today. That's great.
But it's clear right now that a very large majority of people in most countries enthusiastically supports restrictions, even the most idiotic restrictions. Governments know this.
So to get policies to change, demonstrations just won't do the trick. What you need really, is a general strike, or several big simultaneous strikes by employees of key sectors. Hasn't happened yet, but hope that it will.
A very large majority? What would that be, 75%? You think 75% of people in most countries support restrictions, and not only support them but do so *enthusiastically*? And do so enthusiastically even over the most idiotic restrictions?
I don't know how you arrived at that conclusion. Are there numbers somewhere to support the "very large majority of people" claim?
What governments know is that, so far, they haven't had to deal with armed resistance. So they are the only ones on the gridiron right now. But if they mistake our tolerance for their long train of Abuses and Usurpations so far for agreement with and support for them, they will pay a price, first at the polls.
I agree completely with your third paragraph.
A very large majority is 60%. In most elections, that's considered a landslide.
A recent example of wide public support for govt policies was Switzerland's vote on its 'Covid Law' last September. This law basically gives the govt blanket emergency powers to deal with the epidemic. To pass, the law needed a majority of the popular vote and a majority of cantons (similar to US states). It was approved by 64.9% of the voters, and by all the cantons.
Fact is that In Europe, lockdowns, masks, vaxes and the vax passport regimentation schemes have won very widespread acceptance. Sure, there have been protests, for example, many thousands every Saturday across France for months. Government didn't budge, and most people didn't care.
Same indifference in other countries.
When you see violent demonstrations, as in Holland or Austria last week, this usually means the govt will increasingly have the sympathy of its voter base.
Will the tide turn? Who knows. But for a clue we can look once more to Switzerland. This coming Sunday the people will vote again on the Covid Law, because over 100,000 petitioners (out of a Swiss population of 6.8 million) have put forward a motion to repeal a few parts of the law.
Same hurdle: needs a majority of the people plus a majority of the cantons.
Many people around the world are watching, so let's see what happens.
I think 60% being considered a landslide is merely an artifact of historical electoral precedent. I don't think it's necessarily applicable to protests. At the US presidential level, a landslide is defined (more or less) by the number of electoral votes rather than the popular vote (especially since there's no such thing as a "popular vote" for president). 60% of 538 electoral votes is just 323. With 270 needed to win, 323 sure doesn't *feel* like a "very large majority".
By contrast, it could be argued that achieving 75% is necessary to qualify as a "very large majority" given that the US Constitution requires a minimum of 75% of the States' assent in order to amend the Constitution.
At least 75% of NFL owners have to agree in order to change the schedule or to add a new team.
Election to the MLB Hall of Fame requires a minimum 75% vote.
Scaling down from 75%, in order to convict and remove an impeached federal official, the prosecution needs 67%. Even that could be argued to be the minimum necessary for a "very large majority".
60% doesn't seem to cut it.
Agree that these tactics are more impactful, but they are happening too, just under reported; see the dockworkers strikes in Triest and this past week in Rotterdam. The worse it gets, the more they will happen. The sad saps who don't have this kind of power and can only show up to peaceful protests are scary enough that they are massively under reported as well. I have been to the major ones in the Netherlands and the numbers are reduced by a factor of 10 if they make the news at all. The numbers are massive for this tiny country, they dwarf demonstrations in recent years by 10s of thousands. It can't be ignored forever.
One has to wonder what it’ll look like in the US if push comes to shove, as it has in the places where serious protests are erupting. The Corp elite in this country spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars on supporting BLM protests to keep Americans focused on a dubious campaign to right wrongs of the past, and keep our minds OFF the tyrannical imposition of Covid executive orders that are utterly incongruous with the actual threat. Will we continue to be cowed by the full court press of ubiquitous propaganda or will we stop abandoning our responsibilities and turn to face the onslaught with a ferocious full court press of our own?
Next question is whether that even matters anymore? The revolving door of corporate lackeys on both sides of the aisle are in near endless supply, churned out by the two major parties, both of which are completely corrupted and devoid of any real opposition to their prostitution to the Board Room overlords who send them on their next trick.
We need younger representatives in government, ones who have the cojones to stand up and fight. The boomers who have been in government for decades, sucking at the lobbyist teets, need to go. And I say this as a "senior citizen."
💯
I would agree with you but the younger generation was wholly given over to public school indoctrination centers for their entire lives. And now they want the preschools to be state-run which means even more people who know nothing other than Marxist/collectivist ideas. We are screwed.
Not all have been brainwashed.
Younger, older, black, white, male, female, gay, straight, etc. is not an answer. We need competent humans who believe in the Constitution. We need to term limit them to get rid of the careerism. Mayor Pete and Ocasio- Cortez are young. Do they ring your chimes?
Of course not, but that's all you're going to get from the Democrat party. The only option is to work with the Republicans, even if you don't agree with all their positions. It starts at the local level. I'm pro-choice (with limits) and I don't do religion. I'm willing to overlook their position on abortion and constant references to scripture to advance an America First agenda, and support those candidates.
I agree with this statement. Still want competence not just youth, or whatever. And, term limits.
Ask your local reporters why their outlet isn't covering the protest.
Ask your local congress person why they aren't condemning tyranny.
Nah, save your time, you know why. They want to do the same thing to you, lock you up, make you beg for scraps.
Live on your feet or die on your knees.

Note the start of the article “ Tens of thousands of people, many of them far-right supporters” :) :) :)
This cracks me up. Zactly what is a “far right” supporter? It’s like saying a whole bunch of idk whats are protesting. This cuts to it well, it is like stating a bunch of not normal or reasonable folks are protesting. The elitist media even when they do report something have no care to report news. Their desire is to spread constant propaganda in support of the foolish pandemic proceedings to date.
Agreed. When they do report there is always an undermining of the significance and a dehumanization of the people involved
We were about 200k, I guess. And one of the most aggressive and propagandist journalists in Austria had to admit, that „an extremely high number of people“ attended and that he was highly „irritated“ that these were not only „right-wing people but also leftists, old, young, ‚greens’ and conservatives“. But well, this epiphany did not last long 😂.
Please keep at it and keep reporting to us!
I guess I can tell you more in February 😄. If I am then still allowed to use the internet 🤣. I was „invited“ to my „personal jab appointment“ by the very caring Mayor of Vienna two days ago and I am not sure how they will react when I miss this very important appointment 😉. (If that whole thing wasn‘t so spooky it would be absolutely ridiculous 🤣.)
