SURGEON GENERAL’S WARNING: Healthmisinformation can often be hard to detect e.g. Memes (fun, colorful images or graphics) that were created as a joke, but people started resharing thinking it was true. If you’re not sure, don’t share! For more information about health misinformation, please consult the “Toolkit for Addressing Health Misinformation from the Office of U.S. Surgeon General - 2021 (hhs.gov)”
Please feel free to share/post any good COVID memes, jokes, videos etc; links relevant resources; or anything else concerning COVID/vaccines etc (see my book’s Table of Contents plus the FURTHER READING or endnotes section for further COVIDsteria resources).

"Many people reading this might be familiar with the poster/writer “Transcriber B.” This is because Transcriber B routinely posts (and links to) transcripts made from video sources.
A while back it occurred to me this person had undertaken a massive and incredibly-important project. I asked myself: Who is this person and why is he/she doing this? Is this work making a difference?"
In the early 1990s, two Russian artists named Vitaly Komar and Alexander Melamid took the unusual step of hiring a market research firm. Their brief was simple. Understand what Americans desire most in a work of art.
Over 11 days the researchers at Marttila & Kiley Inc. asked 1,001 US citizens a series of survey questions.
What’s your favourite colour? Do you prefer sharp angles or soft curves? Do you like smooth canvases or thick brushstrokes? Would you rather figures that are nude or clothed? Should they be at leisure or working? Indoors or outside? In what kind of landscape?
Komar and Melamid then set about painting a piece that reflected the results. The pair repeated this process in a number of countries including Russia, China, France and Kenya.
Each piece in the series, titled “People’s Choice”, was intended to be a unique a collaboration with the people of a different country and culture.
But it didn’t quite go to plan.
Describing the work in his book Playing to the Gallery, the artist Grayson Perry said:
“In nearly every country all people really wanted was a landscape with a few figures around, animals in the foreground, mainly blue.”
Despite soliciting the opinions of over 11,000 people, from 11 different countries, each of the paintings looked almost exactly the same.
An enduring mystery for three years is how Donald Trump came to be the president who shut down American society for what turned out to be a manageable respiratory virus, setting off an unspeakable crisis with waves of destructive fallout that continue to this day.
Let’s review the timeline and offer some well-founded speculations about what happened.
A Midwestern Doctor’s Substack The Forgotten Side of Medicine hit the proverbial nail on the head, in a recent post when he mused upon the issue of critical thinking being usurped by the illusion of intelligence.
“One of the things I have come to appreciate as the years have gone by is how much of what people say are not their own thoughts. The current structure of our educational system (discussed here) is largely about replacing critical thinking with the illusion of intelligence, where you are seen as smart if you copy what the most authoritative sources or voices say instead of formulating your own opinion.”
"We've Tried This Before... Under Brüning In Weimar Germany"
- We’ve tried that path before too. After 1929, under Brüning in Weimar Germany. It was the crushing deflation he started in 1930 that drove the rise of Nazism in 1933, not the inflation from 1921-23 led by a supply-side shock (France seizing the Ruhr, alongside unpayable war debts in hard currency with no means to export, and, yes, money printing to fill the gap) we teach as being solely responsible despite happening years 10 years earlier! We teach that so we can justify stupid austerity when rejecting stupid fiscal splurges. I can’t believe I have to point out such basic history to people who talk about inflation and populism for a living, but “how now Brüning cow?”
The Free Press is a new media company founded by Bari Weiss and built on the ideals that once were the bedrock of great journalism: honesty, doggedness, and fierce independence. We publish investigative stories and provocative commentary about the world as it actually is—with the quality once expected from the legacy press, but the fearlessness of the new.
Originally called Common Sense, we focus on stories that are ignored or misconstrued in the service of an ideological narrative. For us, curiosity isn’t a liability. It’s a necessity.
In Part 1, we discussed the historical background of Technocracy Inc. that briefly found popularity in the US in the 1930s during the turmoil of the Great Depression.
Technocracy was rooted in socioeconomic theories that focused upon the efficient management of society by experts (technocrats). This idea briefly held the public’s attention during a period of sustained recession, mass unemployment and growing poverty...

Using the data compiled above, we can construct a basic psychological profile of the typical Leftist. This will not apply to every Left-Wing individual, but it can serve as a general framework for understanding and dealing with Leftists. So, generally speaking…
- Leftists believe that life is fundamentally unfair, likely due to their undesirable physical characteristics (shortness, ugliness, weakness, etc.).
- This causes neuroticism and leads to self-obsession and spiteful envy.
- They lose all concern for group interests and focus exclusively on advancing their own standing in society.
- As they cannot get ahead in fair competition, they resort to underhanded, manipulative, and psychopathic strategies.
- This manifests as behaviors like victimhood/virtue signaling, gaslighting, and other forms of coercion and emotional abuse.
- To disguise their nefarious and self-serving aims, they proclaim a universal love for humanity, nature, or the even entire material universe.
- They collaborate with other outcasts and potentially dangerous out-groups to exact vengeance on their perceived “oppressors,” by which they mean normal people.
- However, they will happily betray (“cancel”) their friends and allies, who they value as little as inert objects like rocks, for social gains.
BOOK - Disintegration: Indicators of the Coming American Collapse (Andrei Martyanov) - http://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/ (his blog)
"The United States is undergoing a profound and radical transformation, all features of which point to the fact of its departure at an accelerated rate from its largely self-proclaimed status as a global hegemon. The United States has lost ground in every single category that defines the power and status of a nation in relation to its rivals. This book delves into the reasons for a catastrophic decline of the American nation, addressing a range of factors from the economic (especially energy), to cultural, technological and military factors. America’s deindustrialized economy is now deeply affected by what can only be described as a massacre of her small and middle-size businesses and the implosion of the US commercial aerospace industry. America’s only driver of real growth, the shale oil industry, is facing realities which may make the Great Depression pale in comparison. Disintegration also seeks answers to the precipitous moral and professional decline of the always mediocre qualities of the American elites, from the corridors of political power to those of the military and business, now spiraling out of control. More alarmingly, the trend also points to the possibility of the actual physical disintegration of the United States as a unified entity—whether the divisions are ethnic or ideological. The most profound fault line is cultural—between the Coastal self-proclaimed elites backed by the secular, liberal media and deep state, who promote the most radical ideologies as it concerns gender and race, and the working class majority whom the former polemicize as deplorables, Christian fundamentalists, white supremacists, and climate and science denialists. Investigating these factors sheds light on America’s future which holds very little promise for the country which had once proclaimed itself to be a shining city on the hill. The American collapse is not just coming, we are presently experiencing it. How can we deal with a catastrophe which is unfolding before… "
"I am an American who lives in the small town of Luga, Russia. I was married to my Russian wife, Oksana, but she passed away in August, 2021 after battling breast cancer. So I am now an American single father raising two children, Gabriel (14), and Marina Grace (8), in Russia. I also have two grown sons by my first marriage, Russell and Joel, who live in America. I lived in St. Petersburg for almost three years (2005-2008), where Oksana and I were married. Oksana and I moved to America on April 15, 2008. We lived in America until June 2016 when we moved back to Russia. I received my Russian citizenship in the Spring of 2021, so I hold dual citizenship. For most of my professional career I taught Koine Greek and New Testament in a university in my home state of South Carolina. I took early retirement just before we moved back to Russia."
"My transition from being pro- to anti- Ukraine happened gradually over the last year, and I never took the time to apologize for arguing against people who tried to warn me about Ukrainian Nazis. Y'all were right, I was wrong, and I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner." https://twitter.com/naomiallen_usa/status/1550285990547292161
Whitmer and Fetterman were not campaigning for votes, that is old school. Instead, the machinery behind both candidates focused on the modern path. The Democrat machines in both states focused on ballot collection and ignored the irrelevant votes as cast...
... A vote cannot be cast by a person who is no longer alive, or no longer lives in the area. However, a ballot can be sent, completed and returned regardless of the status of the initially attributed and/or registered individual...
... When ‘ballot organization’ becomes more important than ‘vote winning,’ you modify your electoral campaign approaches accordingly. It might sound simplistic, but inside the distinct difference between ballots and votes you will find why refusing debates is a successful strategy.
If you are trying to win votes you could never fathom campaign success by refusing to debate an opponent. However, if your focus is centered around ballot collection, the debate is essentially irrelevant...
... You can vote at any scale you want. However, when ballots are more important than votes – the election will always favor the former.
In 1700, the not-yet-an-empire of Russia attacked Sweden.
The war was one of the least justified in history, motivated entirely by greed for territory. Sweden’s king Charles XI had recently died, and his heir was not yet eighteen. Russia, along with its allies Saxony and Denmark, sought to hit Sweden while it was weak and take everything it could.
Russia ended up with more than it bargained for. Though not even in his 20s, Charles XII proved to be a military genius more than capable of defending his surrounded kingdom. He first knocked Denmark out of the war within a few weeks via a surprise attack. He then sailed his army to the fortress at Narva, in Swedish Ingria, which was under siege by a Russian army. The battle that ensued was one of the most lopsided in history. The Swedes, outnumbered almost 4:1 and fighting on the offensive during a freezing snowstorm, completely shattered the Russians, inflicting close to 20,000 casualties and sustaining fewer than 2,000 themselves.
After his massive victory at Narva, Charles XII had many opportunities to negotiate a favorable peace with Russia. He did not, and the main reason was moral outrage: Charles believed the war had been an unprovoked war of aggression, and the only acceptable peace was to totally defeat his enemies and strip them of their thrones. Eventually, he launched a full-scale invasion of Russia to do exactly that.
The end result: calamity.
Charles’s army was wrecked by the coldest European winter in five hundred years, then crushed at the Battle of Poltava quite close to the current frontline in the Ukraine war. Sweden lost its empire forever. Russia, meanwhile, has been a world power ever since, and Tsar Peter entered history as Peter the Great.
Russia — ambitious, violent, and thuggish — attacked a smaller neighbor. Russia — poorly-led and overconfident — suffered humiliating defeats. But Russia — vast, determined, and essentially unconquerable — soldiered ahead, and simply outlasted its enemies to win a victory.
Editor’s Note: The following contains an excerpt from Scott McKay’s book The Revivalist Manifesto: How Patriots Can Win the Next American Era. It discusses a key concept which has appeared in several of his more recent columns to describe the decline of America’s cities.
The simple definition of Weaponized Governmental Failure is this: it’s the deliberate refusal to perform the basic tasks of urban governance for a specific political purpose.

- A US grouping, constituted around the thought of the philosopher Leo Strauss, controls from now on both the Secretariat of Defense and the Secretariat of State. After having organized many wars since those of Yugoslavia, they imagined the one in Ukraine. It is now manipulating the European Union and is preparing to deprive it of energy sources. If European leaders do not open their eyes, their alliance with Washington will lead to the collapse of the Union’s economy. There is no point in believing that Europeans will be spared because they are developed. The Straussians wrote, as early as 1992, that they would not hesitate to destroy Germany and the EU.
- Russia is not waging war on the Ukrainian people, but on a small group of people within the US power that has transformed Ukraine without its knowledge, the Straussians. It formed half a century ago and has already committed an incredible amount of crimes in Latin America and the Middle East without the knowledge of the United States. This is their story.

Q & A with ‘Transcriber B’
Hopefully future historians will get Covid history right. If so, this might be because of the tireless work of one unsung Internet hero.
https://billricejr.substack.com/p/q-and-a-with-transcriber-b
"Many people reading this might be familiar with the poster/writer “Transcriber B.” This is because Transcriber B routinely posts (and links to) transcripts made from video sources.
A while back it occurred to me this person had undertaken a massive and incredibly-important project. I asked myself: Who is this person and why is he/she doing this? Is this work making a difference?"
The Age Of Average
https://www.alexmurrell.co.uk/articles/the-age-of-average
In the early 1990s, two Russian artists named Vitaly Komar and Alexander Melamid took the unusual step of hiring a market research firm. Their brief was simple. Understand what Americans desire most in a work of art.
Over 11 days the researchers at Marttila & Kiley Inc. asked 1,001 US citizens a series of survey questions.
What’s your favourite colour? Do you prefer sharp angles or soft curves? Do you like smooth canvases or thick brushstrokes? Would you rather figures that are nude or clothed? Should they be at leisure or working? Indoors or outside? In what kind of landscape?
Komar and Melamid then set about painting a piece that reflected the results. The pair repeated this process in a number of countries including Russia, China, France and Kenya.
Each piece in the series, titled “People’s Choice”, was intended to be a unique a collaboration with the people of a different country and culture.
But it didn’t quite go to plan.
Describing the work in his book Playing to the Gallery, the artist Grayson Perry said:
“In nearly every country all people really wanted was a landscape with a few figures around, animals in the foreground, mainly blue.”
Despite soliciting the opinions of over 11,000 people, from 11 different countries, each of the paintings looked almost exactly the same.

From "How Do You *Feel* about AI Mission Creep?"
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2023-02-15/how-do-you-feel-about-ai-mission-creep
A Midwestern Doctor’s Substack The Forgotten Side of Medicine hit the proverbial nail on the head, in a recent post when he mused upon the issue of critical thinking being usurped by the illusion of intelligence.
“One of the things I have come to appreciate as the years have gone by is how much of what people say are not their own thoughts. The current structure of our educational system (discussed here) is largely about replacing critical thinking with the illusion of intelligence, where you are seen as smart if you copy what the most authoritative sources or voices say instead of formulating your own opinion.”

"We've Tried This Before... Under Brüning In Weimar Germany"
- We’ve tried that path before too. After 1929, under Brüning in Weimar Germany. It was the crushing deflation he started in 1930 that drove the rise of Nazism in 1933, not the inflation from 1921-23 led by a supply-side shock (France seizing the Ruhr, alongside unpayable war debts in hard currency with no means to export, and, yes, money printing to fill the gap) we teach as being solely responsible despite happening years 10 years earlier! We teach that so we can justify stupid austerity when rejecting stupid fiscal splurges. I can’t believe I have to point out such basic history to people who talk about inflation and populism for a living, but “how now Brüning cow?”

5. Conclusion: A profile of the average Leftist
Using the data compiled above, we can construct a basic psychological profile of the typical Leftist. This will not apply to every Left-Wing individual, but it can serve as a general framework for understanding and dealing with Leftists. So, generally speaking…
- Leftists believe that life is fundamentally unfair, likely due to their undesirable physical characteristics (shortness, ugliness, weakness, etc.).
- This causes neuroticism and leads to self-obsession and spiteful envy.
- They lose all concern for group interests and focus exclusively on advancing their own standing in society.
- As they cannot get ahead in fair competition, they resort to underhanded, manipulative, and psychopathic strategies.
- This manifests as behaviors like victimhood/virtue signaling, gaslighting, and other forms of coercion and emotional abuse.
- To disguise their nefarious and self-serving aims, they proclaim a universal love for humanity, nature, or the even entire material universe.
- They collaborate with other outcasts and potentially dangerous out-groups to exact vengeance on their perceived “oppressors,” by which they mean normal people.
- However, they will happily betray (“cancel”) their friends and allies, who they value as little as inert objects like rocks, for social gains.

BOOK - Disintegration: Indicators of the Coming American Collapse (Andrei Martyanov) - http://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/ (his blog)
"The United States is undergoing a profound and radical transformation, all features of which point to the fact of its departure at an accelerated rate from its largely self-proclaimed status as a global hegemon. The United States has lost ground in every single category that defines the power and status of a nation in relation to its rivals. This book delves into the reasons for a catastrophic decline of the American nation, addressing a range of factors from the economic (especially energy), to cultural, technological and military factors. America’s deindustrialized economy is now deeply affected by what can only be described as a massacre of her small and middle-size businesses and the implosion of the US commercial aerospace industry. America’s only driver of real growth, the shale oil industry, is facing realities which may make the Great Depression pale in comparison. Disintegration also seeks answers to the precipitous moral and professional decline of the always mediocre qualities of the American elites, from the corridors of political power to those of the military and business, now spiraling out of control. More alarmingly, the trend also points to the possibility of the actual physical disintegration of the United States as a unified entity—whether the divisions are ethnic or ideological. The most profound fault line is cultural—between the Coastal self-proclaimed elites backed by the secular, liberal media and deep state, who promote the most radical ideologies as it concerns gender and race, and the working class majority whom the former polemicize as deplorables, Christian fundamentalists, white supremacists, and climate and science denialists. Investigating these factors sheds light on America’s future which holds very little promise for the country which had once proclaimed itself to be a shining city on the hill. The American collapse is not just coming, we are presently experiencing it. How can we deal with a catastrophe which is unfolding before… "
How Russia Views America (BOOK REVIEW ESSAY): https://americanaffairsjournal.org/2022/08/how-russia-views-america/
"I am an American who lives in the small town of Luga, Russia. I was married to my Russian wife, Oksana, but she passed away in August, 2021 after battling breast cancer. So I am now an American single father raising two children, Gabriel (14), and Marina Grace (8), in Russia. I also have two grown sons by my first marriage, Russell and Joel, who live in America. I lived in St. Petersburg for almost three years (2005-2008), where Oksana and I were married. Oksana and I moved to America on April 15, 2008. We lived in America until June 2016 when we moved back to Russia. I received my Russian citizenship in the Spring of 2021, so I hold dual citizenship. For most of my professional career I taught Koine Greek and New Testament in a university in my home state of South Carolina. I took early retirement just before we moved back to Russia."

Big Picture, 2022 Midterm Elections Highlight the Distinct Difference Between Ballots and Votes
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/11/09/big-picture-2020-midterm-elections-highlights-distinct-difference-between-ballots-and-votes/
Whitmer and Fetterman were not campaigning for votes, that is old school. Instead, the machinery behind both candidates focused on the modern path. The Democrat machines in both states focused on ballot collection and ignored the irrelevant votes as cast...
... A vote cannot be cast by a person who is no longer alive, or no longer lives in the area. However, a ballot can be sent, completed and returned regardless of the status of the initially attributed and/or registered individual...
... When ‘ballot organization’ becomes more important than ‘vote winning,’ you modify your electoral campaign approaches accordingly. It might sound simplistic, but inside the distinct difference between ballots and votes you will find why refusing debates is a successful strategy.
If you are trying to win votes you could never fathom campaign success by refusing to debate an opponent. However, if your focus is centered around ballot collection, the debate is essentially irrelevant...
... You can vote at any scale you want. However, when ballots are more important than votes – the election will always favor the former.

In 1700, the not-yet-an-empire of Russia attacked Sweden.
The war was one of the least justified in history, motivated entirely by greed for territory. Sweden’s king Charles XI had recently died, and his heir was not yet eighteen. Russia, along with its allies Saxony and Denmark, sought to hit Sweden while it was weak and take everything it could.
Russia ended up with more than it bargained for. Though not even in his 20s, Charles XII proved to be a military genius more than capable of defending his surrounded kingdom. He first knocked Denmark out of the war within a few weeks via a surprise attack. He then sailed his army to the fortress at Narva, in Swedish Ingria, which was under siege by a Russian army. The battle that ensued was one of the most lopsided in history. The Swedes, outnumbered almost 4:1 and fighting on the offensive during a freezing snowstorm, completely shattered the Russians, inflicting close to 20,000 casualties and sustaining fewer than 2,000 themselves.
After his massive victory at Narva, Charles XII had many opportunities to negotiate a favorable peace with Russia. He did not, and the main reason was moral outrage: Charles believed the war had been an unprovoked war of aggression, and the only acceptable peace was to totally defeat his enemies and strip them of their thrones. Eventually, he launched a full-scale invasion of Russia to do exactly that.
The end result: calamity.
Charles’s army was wrecked by the coldest European winter in five hundred years, then crushed at the Battle of Poltava quite close to the current frontline in the Ukraine war. Sweden lost its empire forever. Russia, meanwhile, has been a world power ever since, and Tsar Peter entered history as Peter the Great.
Russia — ambitious, violent, and thuggish — attacked a smaller neighbor. Russia — poorly-led and overconfident — suffered humiliating defeats. But Russia — vast, determined, and essentially unconquerable — soldiered ahead, and simply outlasted its enemies to win a victory.
What happened then may happen again today.

Editor’s Note: The following contains an excerpt from Scott McKay’s book The Revivalist Manifesto: How Patriots Can Win the Next American Era. It discusses a key concept which has appeared in several of his more recent columns to describe the decline of America’s cities.
The simple definition of Weaponized Governmental Failure is this: it’s the deliberate refusal to perform the basic tasks of urban governance for a specific political purpose.

The EU brought to its knees by the Straussians
- A US grouping, constituted around the thought of the philosopher Leo Strauss, controls from now on both the Secretariat of Defense and the Secretariat of State. After having organized many wars since those of Yugoslavia, they imagined the one in Ukraine. It is now manipulating the European Union and is preparing to deprive it of energy sources. If European leaders do not open their eyes, their alliance with Washington will lead to the collapse of the Union’s economy. There is no point in believing that Europeans will be spared because they are developed. The Straussians wrote, as early as 1992, that they would not hesitate to destroy Germany and the EU.
https://www.voltairenet.org/article217976.html
Russia declares war on the Straussians
- Russia is not waging war on the Ukrainian people, but on a small group of people within the US power that has transformed Ukraine without its knowledge, the Straussians. It formed half a century ago and has already committed an incredible amount of crimes in Latin America and the Middle East without the knowledge of the United States. This is their story.
