    Unhinged rant man. Wow. Take a break from the keyboard because this whole "internet" thing seems to really have you spun up.

    No, I don't think some blogger on the internet posting thoughts about a few charts really proves anything anymore. You can make charts about anything. There is no real statistical analysis in his argument and no indication that he got his information anywhere other than from other blogs... and aside from now banal observations, he just says "the same number of people died now as before". OK, but I have no way of really knowing one way or the other if that is true. It's like sitting in a bar and listening to a drunk tell you a Ferrari will go 187 miles per hour. It can be a fun conversation but it's really meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

    I agree with you about Kollerstrom’s logical fallacy. However, where I live there is more than adequate data to demonstrate that the lockdowns have likely caused significant increased mortality, and course of disease caused by the virus has not.
    Statistics on weekly mortality from Stats Canada shows that in Alberta there has been a steady rise in weekly mortality year-on-year from 2019 rates beginning in March, when the restrictions were announced, in the population that is under age 45, among whom there has been less than a “Covid death” per week. The total, as of the end of October, entailed hundreds of excess deaths in this age group against 26 Covid “deaths”.
    The increase in weekly mortality, year-on-year for people in the age cohorts above sixty-five, among whom over 90% of Covid deaths occurred is between 3 and 12% each month since the restrictions were launched. The U-45 death increase rose steadily from about 3% to 65% in October.
    https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=1310076801
    SARS CoV-2 may very well exist, but there is little evidence that it is producing a categorically higher level of mortality than previous seasonal infectious respiratory diseases, and there is significant evidence that the prophylactic socio-economic restrictions are killing people.

Then–a comment or two later–it’s poor little old 2% me can’t do nothing.
     
    But, Jack D does have a point that Jews are over-represented in almost every activity that requires intelligence, whether those activities are benevolent or malevolent.

    Take my own field of physics. Have I ever seen Jews behaving in a clannish way in physics? Yes, I have, occasionally. Did it get them a Nobel prize? Not that I've seen.

    I was a student of Richard Feynman and I know a great deal about his life's work in physics: did Feynman achieve what he achieved because of special help from other Jews? No, he didn't. Feynman worked really hard and he was really smart.

    And, similarly, while I of course was not a student of Einstein, I know a lot of tiny details about Einstein's work: I have been doing research recently in primary documents on his development of General Relativity for a monograph I am working on. Einstein was just really smart and persistent at a level that most people would consider almost insane: the guy just wouldn't give up.

    You think the Jews are tribal and help each other out and are trying to take over the world? I'm sorry but that just does not explain the evidence. The Jews are really smart and work really hard and have especially strong verbal skills? That fits the evidence better, at least since the late nineteenth century.

    A more extreme form of this practice is Coitus reservatus, penetrative sex without ejaculation, which is practiced under different names by a variety of religions across the world. Old Indian gurus have been known to do this with twenty-something disciples even in America in just the last few decades.

    You can see how this practice might be misunderstood.

    Replies: @Bardon Kaldian

    I have practiced sex yoga when in my early 30s, 10-15 years ago, the Chinese variety with some innovations. It was simple: try, when orgasm approaches, using various physical & mental exercises not to ejaculate & spread the rush of energy you feel over all your body, but especially the trunk (the head is a delicate issue). The exchange of the “energy” with sexual partner becomes necessary. Also, various breathing types, body postures, self-awareness …. come with it (but I was not orthodox re these things).

    One need not a guru- I don’t care for them; so DIY. The practice is known, no mystification.

    Goals: serenity, health, peace, transcendence, expansion of consciousness. Goals achieved, in my case: nothing. Not more than powerful orgasms without ejaculation. On the contrary: sexual obsession, mind flooded with images of sex intercourse, generally highly charged & powered body, but-psycho-spiritual disgust & something violent growing in me. After a month and a half, I dropped it.

    I am not dissing people who claim they achieved bliss, transcendence, radiant & ecstatic life through sex. I just didn’t. True, I noticed a heightened female physical interest in me (I avoided it); also, maybe because I was not in love with partners, nothing came out of it.

    Except some kind of unhealthy sexual aggressiveness & heightened potency I soon ditched when I perceived wh0 I had been turning into.

  • @GeeBee

    Ultimately, the reason the classical music canon (and Beethoven’s status as a titan of European civilization) is so keenly resented by anti-White activists, is because the gap in civilizational attainment it underscores is an embarrassing affront to regnant egalitarian assumptions. Western art music (with Beethoven as its leading exponent) stands as a glaring testament to the pre-eminence of European high culture, and implicitly of the race responsible for it.
     
    A brave and entirely accurate summation. The war on Whites must, but of course, begin by laying waste to the enemy's armoury and scattering his treasure. I welcome this, as only an attack on something so fundamental to ourselves as are our cultural and artistic achievements, will wake people up to what is planned for us.

    As for that Jewish tart's remark that "The point of recapitulation in the first movement of [Beethoven's] Ninth [symphony] is one of the most horrifying in music, as the carefully prepared cadence is frustrated, damming up energy which finally explodes in the throttling murderous rage of a rapist incapable of attaining release", I have to say that (until she veers off into feminist garbage invoking rape, at least) she describes the climax of that remarkable movement extremely well .

    As a very young man, when I first discovered the D-minor symphony (as I prefer to refer to the 'ninth' as), I was shaken to my very core by this (first) movement, and especially by the recapitulation. It made the most profound emotional effect upon me, so much so that I knew I had discovered some sort of magic key into my soul. The version I heard (it was loaned to me on 33-rpm vinyl by a school chum) was of Wilhelm Furtwängler conducting the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra in 1951. A masterful performance.

    I have a very eclectic taste in music, but I am under no illusions whatever that Beethoven, along with Wagner, Mozart and Bach, were men set apart from the rest of humanity. They were, to me, conduits down which flowed musical offerings from the gods.

    don’t believe that Jesus Christ is God, the Son of the Omnipotent God! Good God.
     
    Hard to believe when we cant even understand what it even means that someone is a Son of the God. You Christians always say that Christ is the son of the God, but what that even means? Clearly not same as being human son of human parents, because Christ is not created and he is eternal like his father, so their filial relations are not comparable with those of men.

    Not understanding others logic or line of thought is not same as disbelieving or denying something, at least in my opinion.

    About divinity? We believe in divinity in same way as ancient Romans and Hellenes believed, in the original meaning of the word, its not our problem that you are such modernists. Sorry, I couldnt resist, just a small jest said in a friendly manner.

    The understanding what is the true nature of Christ, is quite complicated topic, surely you forgive me, if I cant definitely say as a non Christian if the theological school of Antioch had a better Christological understanding, than school of Alexandria. Still the relations between Copts and Orthodox are quite warm, theres a difference between modern miaphysites and ancient monophysites.


    You cannot deny an ‘unoriginated origin’, a ’cause of all causes’, a ‘unmovable mover’, without falling into a ‘regressus ad infinitum’ (Anavastha, I believe is called in Sanskrit) and renouncing to know anything.
     
    Your knowledge is quite vast, I had never heard about Anavastha, and theres clearly somekind of problem with infinite regression, or at least some people think its problematic, but whats the problem, is not clear to me. I just believe in Pratityasamutpada, co-dependent origination, that has continued eternally. Still our ancient master Arya Nagarjuna had a solution to the problem of infinite regression here:
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anavastha#Buddhist_concept

    Sorry that Im too unknowledgeable or just plain stupid to explain well or profoundly such matters to you, but it seems to me that Nagarjuna explains that all things lack of self nature or self existence, but if they would have a self nature then they would have an ultimate origin or source. There are no clear divides in reality between different objects or phenomena, they are all mutually dependent with each others, they have always been, and they always will be.

    Hmm, we are just a Pagan philosophy with no ulterior or malevolent motives in regards of your faith, worldly beings or beings of this world, like ancient Greek sophists, still I dont see any problems for mutual co-existence. And its not like we have history of persecuting each other, Buddhists have lived in peace and as loyal subjects of Orthodox Czars starting from the 17th century. Many Cossacks were Buddhist Kalmyks or Buryats.

    During the blessed times of the Orthodox emperors Buddhists served in the Don, Astrakhan, Volga, Transbaikal, Baikal and Amur cossack hosts, and they were harshly punished by the godless Soviets for their loyalty to Czarist authorities.

    Sure that Buddhists incomprehension of what the ‘Son of God’ is and their relative indifference for history is not an impediment for mutual political coexistence, especially that it was them who sought the Tsar’s protection, who was wise enough to see that they would never pose any significant threat (as Muslims do). We know the stories of the ‘White Tsar’, ‘Shambala’, of Agvan Dordjiev, Badmaev/Zhamsaran (who converted to Orthodoxy), Ungern-Sternberg and his Asiatic Cavalry Division. Again, ‘who is not against us, is with us’. It is not the case with Muslims, who are openly and militantly against Christ as Son of God, which makes ‘mutual political coexistence’ uneasy, to say the least.

    People, especially those who have a lot of it, tend to recognize the impact of intellect and then to go on and extrapolate to the point that it becomes the end-all and be-all.

    Keep in mind that smart people are still people, which means they are still as dumb as people, and people are dumb.

    Intelligence is like a hot pepper in cooking: how much you put in does indeed make a huge difference, but it is not even close to being the most prevalent or even most important ingredient. It only takes a little bit of cayenne to change the character of your chili, but what you have is still chili.

    Lately, the mutations are making the news labeled with the country of origin. Then they start showing up around the world. The first X was discovered in one city and then the first Y in another.

    I want to know how these are being identified and what caused someone to go thru the trouble of identifying it.

    I can't believe the symptoms of a variant are so different that it would cause someone to check, via electron microscope, that this person has a new strain of the bug. What would lead someone to take a sample from a person and place it in an electron microscope to see it's something different? Then, I want to know how they determined it is different. The only reliable way to check would be to look at the thing using electron microscopy, to the best of my knowledge. Are they actually routinely using such high dollar gear to screen everyone? I doubt it.

    "To get a solid model, you need to normalize for political affiliation."

    I suspect it's a moving correlation. As of 6 years ago (i.e. before Trump and COVID) anti-vaxxers tended to lean liberal according to a Pew Research Center poll. Those who earn less than $25K, those who live in rural areas, and those without a college degree were all more likely to be anti-vaxxers.

    Put all that together, and the claim that "...there’s a correlation between intelligence and attitudes toward the vaccine…” seems plausible.

    Had they broken the poll responders out by race, we'd see how much of that is skewed by African American attitudes towards vaccines (given that they're more likely than whites to be Democratic, salaried at < $25K, and without college degrees) but I'm not surprised the poll takers decided to step around that land mine.

    A couple of important words missing there. Yeadon resigned as Vice-President and Chief Scientific Officer of Pfizer, the vaccine maker.

    As for the way in which the political establishment is handling potentially deadly risks such as ADE that are posed by minimally tested nucleic acid vaccines — risks that Yeadon refused to sweep under the rug, it’s worth reading this BMJ Editorial: Covid-19: politicisation, “corruption,” and suppression of science.

    I was born in the US and emigrated to Europe 35 years ago. I speak fluent German and some French and Spanish. I have lived in Europe longer than I did in the US. I have been told by European cousins that I will always be an American in their eyes.

    I think your understanding of "Germans" is quite naive. There is good reason why most of the EU consider Germans to be nearly as arrogant as jews and many of them would have to think long and hard whether a government dominated by jews was worse than the one they have which is dominated by Germans.

    Speaking from my personal knowledge, in the Costa del Sol there are many different communities of northern European immigrants, but the two strongest are the Brits and the Germans. I am certain that this also applies to Tuscany, Provence and the Greek islands. These two communities are like oil and water and just don't mix. Whereas the Brits can be loud and obnoxious, the Germans are arrogant and tightfisted, even bordering on cheapskates. They are also far more clannish than the Brits and likely to rationalize their often selfish behaviour.

    I am telling you this because you, and many other Americans, seem to believe Germans really are some kind of master race, partly because of the grave injustices that were perpetrated on them, but in fact it is not nearly that cut and dried. Of course there are also strong regional differences between Germans, and many Bavarians would strongly object to being lumped together with Northern Prussians.

    Replies: @Carolyn Yeager

    Thanks for sharing this. It clearly says you’ve become a European rather than a German … an example of EU success. You speak of your “European cousins” and find a lot of fault with German behavior compared to non-Germans.

    However, it’s music to my ears to hear you say “most of the EU consider Germans to be nearly as arrogant as jews,” and “arrogant and tightfisted, even bordering on cheapskates. They are also far more clannish than the Brits and likely to rationalize their often selfish behaviour.” That tells me they’re sticking to their Germanness despite the attempts to turn them into approved look-alike, act-alike “Europeans.” I especially like the clannish behavior. Means there’s still hope for their survival.

    I don’t think, and have never thought or said, that Germans are a master race. Yet you say that I “seem to believe it.” What is your evidence? Because I am positive about Germans while you seem to dislike them? You even say “the grave injustices that were perpetrated on them” are “in fact not nearly that cut and dried.” Really? What are you referring to? And there is your odd desire to divide Germans into regional and religious factions. Have you seen the articles on my site, https://carolynyeager.net/hostility-towards-germans? You fit the profile.

    Your saying “My father’s family came from Thurgau, my mother’s family from Tübingen” doesn’t indicate when. It’s like me saying my mother’s family came from Bauerbach, even though it was 5-6 generations back from me. You’re an American with German ancestry whose story is that you moved to Germany 35 years ago. Maybe for a job? Not surprising you have grandkids who were born there, who naturally speak German and eat Strawberry torte. But you’re strangely hostile to German history, appearing as a typical modern “European.” Actually, you appear to me as someone who think more like an American.

    Thanks! This helps explain the exact why in prescribing steroids in serious cases (see below for what the NIH considers as such). They're obviously suppressing the innate immune system enough for the patient to survive, while at the same time allowing the adaptive immune system to do its thing and create a targeted and more effective response. You might say it's the job of the ancient adaptive immune system to keep us alive until the 500,000 year adaptive old takes care of what it can't stop, and it goes overboard at times.

    Although per a paper including Saint Fauci as an author this does not seem to be a cause, or perhaps the sole cause of the high fatality rate of the 1918-9 "Spanish" flu.


    Methods. We examined relevant information from the most recent influenza pandemic that occurred during the era prior to the use of antibiotics, the 1918–1919 “Spanish flu”; pandemic. We examined lung tissue sections obtained during 58 autopsies and reviewed pathologic and bacteriologic data from 109 published autopsy series that described 8398 individual autopsy investigations.

    Results. The postmortem samples we examined from people who died of influenza during 1918–1919 uniformly exhibited severe changes indicative of bacterial pneumonia. Bacteriologic and histopathologic results from published autopsy series clearly and consistently implicated secondary bacterial pneumonia caused by common upper respiratory-tract bacteria in most influenza fatalities.
     
    And I faintly recall a report from the early days of COVID-19 that secondary bacterial infections were associated with bad outcomes. Hmmm, per the conservative Merck Manual, only remdesivir and the steroid dexamethasone are "sometimes" recommended, except of course supportive care certainly including use of antibiotics if bacteria join the battle. Ignoring the questionable remdesivir, dexamethasone or another glucocorticoid is recommended by the NIH for patients requiring supplemental oxygen or mechanical ventilation.

    As of 19 March 2020, COVID-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence infectious disease (HCID) in the UK.
    The 4 nations public health HCID group made an interim recommendation in January 2020 to classify COVID-19 as an HCID. This was based on consideration of the UK HCID criteria about the virus and the disease with information available during the early stages of the outbreak. Now that more is known about COVID-19, the public health bodies in the UK have reviewed the most up to date information about COVID-19 against the UK HCID criteria. They have determined that several features have now changed; in particular, more information is available about mortality rates (low overall), and there is now greater clinical awareness and a specific and sensitive laboratory test, the availability of which continues to increase.
    The Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) is also of the opinion that COVID-19 should no longer be classified as an HCID.”

But Boris Johnson said he loved China in a late February call to Xi. A month before that he gave China the UK 5g contract (this decision was only rescinded in May after massive American pressure). Britain seems to have been lied to by Chinese authorities, and so Xi must be accounted responsible for the lion’s share of 100,000 Covid-19 deaths in Britain.

    Maybe you can fill in a blank for me. Thanks to at best gross incompetence at the CDC, and I believe enemy action at the FDA (ask for details), the US was flying blind until sometime in March, because the combination of those two prevented the US from testing more than 4,000 people through the end of February. How hard was the U.K. looking during this period?

    Oh, about the early 2020 U.K. 5G base station contract with Huawei? The U.K. actually did a real audit of their code, and found many horrors. Again, details on request, or look up the topic in The Register, but they include finding tens of distinct copies of a SSL/TLS security library, even worse than normal for a primarily hardware company.

    It wasn't so much an issue that Huawei might have included some back doors into the systems, but they were so insecure it would have been incredibly easy to hack into them. Of course given some sort of access, but these are communications hubs after all. Given that, I find it extremely fishy that Boris and company agreed to a contract, they shouldn't be able to claim ignorance.

    That was an invasion by outside powers, much like Vicious Nudelman passing out cookies and billion$ of American taxpayer dollars to overthrow the legitimate, elected government in Kiev and replace it with the Khazarian Mafiya under Porkyshenko and now latterly, Zelensky.

    Good, maybe those big glass things will finally drive the last blacks out of Hayes Valley. The very worst thing about WW2 was the importation of blacks to the cities during WW2.
    1940 blacks were .08 of the population.

    By 1955, 13 years after the first blacks arrived, Hayes Valley was known as Death Valley. They took over not just Hayes Valley but also adjacent Fillmore one of the most beautiful old Victorian neighborhoods and just drove Whites out by force fear and terrorism.

    After the White men gays with guns and a rather ferocious volunteer security force bought the rental homes the blacks lived in and moved in, the neighborhood turned White again.

    There’s a little plaza dedicated to Historic African American Fillmore. BS and BS again. The neighborhood was black from about 1942 to 1980, less than 40 years. The most criminal and dangerous years.

    When the neighborhood was Japanese and White pre 1940 it was totally safe close to downtown and harbor jobs and wonderful. Only took first brave White men gays 15 years 1975 to 1990, then other Whites and Asians to turn the neighborhood around.

    You are a non pragmatist dreamer. Lets analyze your logic, you think that theres something like genuine Russianness or Chineseness, which was weakened or destroyed by different historical incidents or leaders. If we follow your line of thought we can claim that Ivan IV already weakened traditional Russian culture, with his centralization and oprichina, after all he did his very best in destruction of local identities and traditional nobility, if we go further we can say that Mongols destroyed the traditional Russian values, if we go even further we can claim such humbug, that it was the Christianity which destroyed the primordial or original characteristics of the Rus people. In my opinion, this logic you employ, is utterly silly.

    Less thinking of permanent fixed states or phenomena, more thinking of processes without beginning and end.

    This is strange though, for most educated Westerners Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Chekov are cultural reference points on a level with Shakespeare, Ibsen, Goethe, Homer etc. as being amongst the greatest European writers. The Tsars still retain a reputation as being amongst the most splendid monarchs in Europe, the Soviet Army in its heyday as one of the most powerful and developed European militaries and so on. This kind of cultural recognition doesn’t fit easily with the POC label, though maybe it is more prevalent among people who are old enough to remember something of the period before the fall of the USSR, when ‘Russia’ was the other great superpower.

    My original statement was “his estimate would be double or more than what I provided.”

    Reading is hard for you. The wiki article on the Soviet famine of 1932-1933 provides numbers that are generally not even twice lower than Conquest’s. According to that article, Conquest claimed 8 million victims while “R.W. Davies and S.G. Wheatcroft, gives an estimate of 5.5 to 6.5 million deaths”
     
    That's according to Wiki which is full of cold war propaganda.

    The real number as I said is closer to 2 million. And the Russian duma just says things to give themselves 'more legitimacy' over the soviet regieme.

    For exmaple, China said that Mao's era was 70% good and more people died at that time than in the USSR. So that means the USSR was 80% good.

    Nothing in 1914.

    Last major peacetime famine under the Tsars was in 1891-1892. 375,000-500,00 dead.

     

    Cold war propaganda. Plus when the war was happening there was no ability to take a census. So of course there wasn't any knowledge of famines. I have have given you data from the world bank on that time period, where the 'sovok website' draws its info.

    Guess you're wrong again eh.

    In Russia, total wartime civilian losses in 1914-1917 due to hunger and disease (typhoid epidemic) ranged from 730,000 to 1.5 million. Not “millions.”
     
    This is not including those that were under constant starvation as the tsar requisitioned all the grain and cattle.

    You display your ignorance about basic historical facts when you bring up civilian deaths from famine and disease in World War I as an example of Russian government incompetence.
     
    The Imperial government did not fight on its territory so no shit they had fewer deaths than the other great powers. But the fact that the had more than 1 million deaths on their territory and they weren't even fighting in Russia proper indicates that the Tsar was incompetent lol

    They died at rates lower than in 1921-1922 and lower than did French, Germans, Italians, and Turks (see above).

     

    False you gave data from 1917, deaths from tsarist mismanagement which led to revolution and civil war led to higher rates of death than anywhere in europe.

    As you can see, most of the area where the 1921-1922 famine occurred had already been controlled by Bolsheviks for more than a year by the time the million or so people starved. It was precisely in areas controlled by the Bolsheviks for a long period of time where the people starved. Regions that the Bolsheviks did not control for a long time did not experience famine. Consolidation of Red rule led to mass starvation. Areas where Bolsheviks didn’t rule for along time such as Ukraine did not starve in 1921-1922. These areas would starve later in the 1930s, after Bolsheviks consolidated their rule.
     
    False. As I've shown you in my previous posts, these places where hardest hit by Tsarist grain requisitions (remember I even quoted saying that 'the productive agricultural sectors where hardest hit') because they had the most grain to requisition. Tsarist requisition policies led to utter destruction of agriculture in those areas and it takes more than one year to rebuild agriculture as I have shown you in previous charts.

    I posted numbers, from your own pro-Soviet source, that showed that Soviets consumed 1/6 of the cars, 1/2 the TVs, 1/6 the radios, 1/2 vacuums, etc. of Americans. So average Soviet was about as poor if not poorer than poor Americans.

    Look at a map:

    Nobody was fighting on German territory (except for a few villages on the French border).

    Incursions in Italy were minimal. Incursions in France were not much more than on Russian territory.

    Let’s review how Russian civilians under the Tsars fared vs. those in Germany, Austria-Hungary, France and Italy, and Ottoman Empires:

    Percentage of civilians dead from famine or disease during the war:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I_casualties

    Russian Empire – 1.6% to 1.9%

    Italy – 3% to 5%
    Germany – 3.4% to 4.3%
    Austria-Hungary – 3.5% to 4%
    France – 4.3% to 4.4%
    Ottoman Empire – 13.3% to 15.4%

    Of all the major continental powers, the Russian Empire lost the fewest percentage of people to famine and disease during World War I.

    People have experienced food shortages due to grain requisitions, but they were dying in far smaller numbers than anyone else in Europe.

    False. As I’ve shown you in my previous posts, these places where hardest hit by Tsarist grain requisitions (remember I even quoted saying that ‘the productive agricultural sectors where hardest hit’) because they had the most grain to requisition.

    Tsarist grain requisition in 1914-1917 did not produce the famine of 1921-1922. Soviet grain requisitions combined with drought that Soviet incompetent government couldn’t deal with, did that.

    I was wrong about death toll – it was about 5 million in 1921-1922. So Soviet peacetime famines killed 5+7+1 million Soviet people n the 20th century – 13 million.

    Only 10 years after 5 million Soviets starved to death, another 7 million starved to death.

    The Soviets were brilliant at population removal of Slavs.

    Tsarist requisition policies led to utter destruction of agriculture in those areas and it takes more than one year to rebuild agriculture as I have shown you in previous charts

    Your empty assertions doesn’t make it so. Again, the hardest hit places of the 1921-1922 famine were those with the longest Bolshevik control of the countryside:

    “I posted numbers, from your own pro-Soviet source, that showed that Soviets consumed 1/6 of the cars, 1/2 the TVs, 1/6 the radios, 1/2 vacuums, etc. of Americans. So average Soviet was about as poor if not poorer than poor Americans.”

    Do you not know what an “average” means? Just because an “average” american had that does not mean that a “poor” american had it LOL.

    You don’t know basic statistics either.

    For example with height:

    Men are on average taller than women. This means that short men would be as tall as average women.

    Similarly, Americans on average had 6 times more cars than Soviets on average. Assuming a more or less normal curve, this means that poor Americans would have more cars than average Russians.

    Indeed, if you go to a poor neighborhood, even in the 70s, you would see lots of cars driven by those poor people. And the cars driven by those poor people would be much larger and more comfortable than the Zhigulis driven by middle class Soviets 🙂

    Americans had twice as many televisions

    So what? Americans also had more crime

    Homicide rate in 1988 was 9.6 in the USSR and 8.4 in the USA.

    Did you know that 8.4 is lower than 9.6?

    worse education.

    Another failure of the Soviet system – despite high education, people were poor, had shorter life expectancy, and lived in a violent place.

    Not only did famines under the Tsar occur every 10-13 years (link below) but

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droughts_and_famines_in_Russia_and_the_Soviet_Union#Pre-1900_droughts_and_famines

    It's not my empty assertions though. Its supported by sources which you conveniently ignore because it doesn't support your narrative.

    And the famine occurred because those were the most agriculturally rich areas that where hit hardest by Tsarist requisitions for WW1 and coincided with Western Russia/Ukraine that was controlled by Bolshevik's. You are confusing cause and effect LOL. Not surprising because you aren't very smart but like to pretend you are.

    Ok. And? They had more cars because US cities where constructed to not be compact (ie have more sprawl) with the automobile industry in mind. This is not the case for Europe (at that time) which had a better developed public transport system. In the USSR specifically people didn't need cars because of the way that housing complexes where constructed (to have grocery store, school, work, etc within walking distance). LOL you are so stupid you don't even know these things and are making totally irrelevant comparisons.

    Homicide rate in 1988 was 9.6 in the USSR and 8.4 in the USA.

    The majority of white women voted for Trump in 2016. I expect it was the same in 2020.

    Are you surprised that the US media only mentions the white woman minority who voted for Hillary Clinton? All she needed to do to win against Trump was to get a majority of the white womens’ vote.

    Whites are still a large majority of US citizens even without counting the large majority of Latin American Whites. Of course, if they were included in the White group, Trump’s support amongst white women would crash. As they continue to establish businesses and get good educations, that will change in the future. Democrat Party ownership of the US Latin American vote depends on their always being poor. The right often wins elections in Latin America.

    The Democrats have believed for a long time in lawyers creating legislation but it’s only recently that they’ve believed in a system of US censorship run by billionaires. That didn’t surprise me because I’ve always believed most Democrat politicians were corrupt. I am surprised their voters are gullible enough to support it. After all, most of their voters aren’t billionaires. I doubt you are. Perhaps you’re an extreme right winger who believes in complete subservience to billionaires.

    “To get a solid model, you need to normalize for political affiliation.”

    I suspect it’s a moving correlation. As of 6 years ago (i.e. before Trump and COVID) anti-vaxxers tended to lean liberal according to a Pew Research Center poll. Those who earn less than $25K, those who live in rural areas, and those without a college degree were all more likely to be anti-vaxxers.

    Put all that together, and the claim that “…there’s a correlation between intelligence and attitudes toward the vaccine…” seems plausible.

    Had they broken the poll responders out by race, we’d see how much of that is skewed by African American attitudes towards vaccines (given that they’re more likely than whites to be Democratic, salaried at < $25K, and without college degrees) but I'm not surprised the poll takers decided to step around that land mine.

    If you're a healthy person why would you want to get this controversial vaccine? Even if you get "Covid", which by now is just another variant, you have a 99.98% survival rate. They say their vaccine is about 94% effective (from one acct I read), but that's probably been puffed up big time. You may actually already have an immunity to it if you had one of the previous sars outbreaks according to people like ex VP of Pfizer, Dr. Michael Yeadon (who has been summarily censored off the internet, but you can find him on bitchute, Brighteon, New You tube, lbry.tv, etc).

    The main clincher on Covid is understanding the PCR test, which bases the "cases" by the amplification process at a molecular level where the most obscure pieces of the virus may be detected. But they have been using a very high Cycle Threshold (ct); well over 30, which noted doctors say should be the maximum ct. But they've been using 40 ct and higher which has produced a huge number of False Positive "Cases".

    If you recall, when the spikes were occurring in 2020, it was in line with the "cases" which has nothing to do with sick people. In other words, the Covid19 "Pandemic" was way over blown and deaths were recorded in huge numbers as "covid" if a person tested positive for it, even though most were likely dying of other disease.

  • @Thomas
    I had some job bites years ago from South Florida as I was finishing up my education. More than I would've anticipated and which came entirely out of the blue. I came to the conclusion, one I've seen validated from observations and anecdotes since, that Florida has "brain deficit" (cf. "brain drain") problem and has to import what educated workforce it has from elsewhere. For the fourth-largest state in the union, its state university system has always punched below its weight as far as academics goes (better known for sports). They've always benefitted from wealthier and more educated emigres from Latin America (e.g., Cubans in the 1960s, Venezuelans today), but have never been particularly good at developing their own talent. I read somewhere years ago that Miami was one of the least-educated metro areas in the country of its size, and had among the lowest wages. Hispanic culture is, of course, not generally known for prizing intellectual achievements. I doubt a lot of fun and sun help either. (Who would want to stay in a cubicle and code for 16 hours straight when they live in Miami?)

    My guess is that Miami is not a good fit culturally for tech guys...
     
    When I was going to school in the Bay Area, there was an anecdote going around from someone who had had an interview in Miami and who had stopped for a beer somewhere, leading to this exchange:

    "What's your seasonal on-tap?"

    "Michelob Lite."

    And, while the Latin muy macho and the muy whatever the feminine equivalent of macho gender roles aren’t ideal for tech guys (e.g., Richard, the hero of Mike Judge’s great Silicon Valley), they are at least saner and funner than transmania.
     
    Well... a lot of transmania is driven by trannies in tech. I'm... kind of curious how a bunch of aspergery, cannot-pass-very-well tech trannies with anime avatars would manage in an environment in which dressing lightly is a climactic requirement and there are enough real women walking around who aren't shy about showing off their assets.

I would not describe Britain is a culturally self-confident country these days.

    But, as I wrote in my comment above, wealthy and powerful figures from the pre-1917 Russian Empire, they would show unfeigned respect to and have actual interest in (you see this a fair bit with the Romanovs), the KGB was genuinely respected and feared as an intelligence agency etc. In some way you can see this in books and cultural publishing, there was a healthy interest in books about many aspects of the Soviet Union and people would study them to measure Western institutions against them and learn new things.

    A fifth reason I just thought about is with the Israel piece that you mentioned above. As everyone knows, the Neocons in America have strong connections to Israel, with a high likelihood that they coordinate policies with the Israel Government. If the Neocons wanted to handicap China and cement the highly pro-Israel US country as number 1, why would the Israel government allow the dissemination of a report on their newspaper that would undermine the United States' credibility?
    Unlike America, where Trump had no control over his own government, the Israel government seems very much in control. If I was using my controlled forces in another country to sabotage someone else, I would not want to disseminate anything implicating my ideological forces. The fact that the Israeli government hasn't taken that report down indicated they think that it is a complete joke of a notion.

    Also, like my point 4 says, the US was clearly seen as the superior country before COVID, especially when you consider the fact that China has 6x the workforce yet a smaller nominal GDP, which is the metric that most countries use when evaluating and comparing with each other including the PRC government's favored metric. There was clearly no upside to sabotaging China, especially when the Chinese are very favorable to Israel, who the Neocons strongly support. Indeed, as many news organizations point out, Israel is the most popular foreign country on Weibo: https://qz.com/1290584/israels-very-popular-on-weibo-thanks-to-chinas-online-islamophobia/

    Another elaboration of my point 1:
    As I mentioned there was roughly a 100 day period from when the Virus would have entered China in your theory, during the Wuhan games, to when the Chinese government instituted the first lockdown. In America, the first virus cases began circulating in January itself, and 100 days later in late March, early April, we were already at 2000 deaths a day or so, and that was with *some* if marginal policy responses, especially in your state of California. China's *total* deaths was around 4,600 people.

    So, if China had a similar time span of doing absolutely nothing, from the Wuhan games to the first lockdown, why didn't China, with a larger population density, had a much lower final caseload and total deaths than America did in a *two* day period at the 100 day mark?

    The only explanation for such a discrepancy is either your theory is wrong, that the virus didn't appear during Wuhan games, or that the Chinese have some sort of immunity to COVID that the other races of the world lack, which then would make them vastly more suspect than the United States.

    Frankly, my guess is that the coronavirus is endemic to East Asia, and as such, them and other related people will naturally do a better job resisting the disease compared to other groups. There was certainly no bioweapon, and it was a naturally reoccurring endemic. But then again, that is my personal view and it can certainly can be wrong.

    @Ron Unz

    Hi, Ron. So, I thought I would use your comments as an opportunity to organize my thoughts on this “Global Pandemic.” To put my cards on the table, I have been in the so-called Flu Hoaxer camp sense April of 2020, although I would rather call it the No Pandemic camp, whatever the actual truth regarding the specific Sars-Cov-2 virus. As an aside, I am a regular reader of Mr. Wang Lin of Lagos’ DS website, and perhaps not surprisingly, the evolution of my thinking on the issue tracks with Andrew’s very closely.

    Back in March of 2020, under one of Mr. Barrett’s posts, I laid out what appeared to be the competing hypotheses regarding The Chan phenomenon:


    Competing hypotheses on the Chan Question:

    1) Official story: COVID19 originates in a Wuhan “wet” seafood/exotic animal market in late 12/19 and begins to spread throughout the PRC due to authoritarian cover-ups and then to other East Asian nations and eventually to the West due to mistakes.

    2) Pro-Empire conspiracy theory: COVID19 was invented by the Chinese as a bioweapon and accidentally/intentionally leaked into the Chinese population. Contagion exacerbated by PRC authoritarian state and initial cover ups. The West is now having to deal with the “Chinese Virus.”

    3) Anti-Empire conspiracy theory: COVID19 is a bioweapon produced by the Empire to attack enemies of the Empire.

    A. Appearance in the West is due to accident/incompetence.

    B. “Appearance” in the West is intentional and part of “the plan.”

    i) The “appearance” in the West or at least the US is a lie or intentionally being blown out of proportion.

    ii) The appearance in the West is real, it is serious, and the internal chaos is an “opportunity.”

    4) Much ado theory: COVID19 is just a bad flu that kills mostly old people and people with preexisting conditions being hyped by an hysterical media for attention or something.

    https://www.unz.com/kbarrett/9-11-truth-coronavirus-truth-zionist-hysteria-msm-lockdown-war-on-the-horizon/?showcomments#comment-3783726

     

    It appears that you are in the point 3 camp, and probably the point 3A, camp: a bioweapon attack on Washington’s geopolitical rivals with unintended blowback. The Flu Hoaxers would generally be in the point 4 camp. However, it is important to consider that there are intermediate possibilities, point 3Bi, for example. It certainly seems quite suspicious that Iran appears to have been hard hit by this illness and soon after the fiasco with the martyred general, and that the PRC was hit around the time of its troubles with the Hong Kong color revolution. However, as I don’t live in either of those countries, I cannot verify what life is like on the ground there. However, when it comes to my life here in the US, I would not describe what I have been living in as a pandemic, but as a scamdemic. So, without further ado…

    Mario’s Case for No Pandemic:

    Let’s consider the following pieces of information:

    1) In March, the Italian government published perhaps the first study of COVID19 deaths: average age of 80 and 98% with one or more serious comorbidities . https://www.docdroid.net/TLJtNbJ/report-covid-2019-17-marzo-v2-pdf

    2) In the spring of 2020, Iceland found that half of those who test positive for Sars-cov-2 are without symptoms. https://nypost.com/2020/04/01/half-of-coronavirus-patients-in-iceland-are-symptom-free-study/

    3) Replicating, to some degree, the findings of the Iceland, were the tests conducted on those “stranded” on the Diamond Princess cruise ship. https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-80-percent-cases-are-mild-2020-2?op=1

    4) The top method of testing, Kerry Mullis’ RT PCR, is, according to Mullis and apparently the advice on the testing kits, not to be used as a diagnostic tool. When run at sufficiently high amplification cycles it will generally find everyone to be positive for anything.

    5) Contradicting the official story line regarding the Wuhan “origins” is yet another study out of Italy that found that blood samples from summer of 2019 tested positive for Sars-cov-2 antibodies. The Reuters article I am citing states that the authors say this doesn’t contradict the Wuhan origin story, but umm...yeah whatever (why would they feel the need to say that?) https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-italy-china-idUSKBN27Z2QG

    6) Deborah Birx, the head of the Trump coronavirus task force, advised health professionals to be very liberal with COVID19 diagnoses, and this appears to be incentivized financially by the CARES act. https://www.westernjournal.com/dr-birx-govt-counting-death-anyone-coronavirus-covid-19-death-regardless-conditions/

    The above points have to make one ask: what kind of rational public health response consists of using a flawed method to test completely healthy individuals, ritually report “pandemic” case numbers and deaths without any context or details, engages in lockdown policies when counter examples (Sweden, Netherlands) have demonstrated that they are of little help, while financially incentivizing hospitals to report as many Pandemic deaths as possible, while massively censoring any contradictory information on the social media platforms?

    I recently asked a friend of mine who is a believer of sorts: if the media wasn’t reporting this stuff and we didn’t have the lockdowns, would you believe you were living in a pandemic? Answer: No!

    In short, any bioweapon hypothesis regarding events in Iran or China has to also contend with the facts that indicate that in the West this pandemic is largely a forced narrative built on a foundation of sand.

    Furthermore, it is interesting that although the Chinese seem to have indicated that they thought this was a bioweapon attack, they seem to have stopped massive testing way back in March of 2020. Having plotted the data from WHO “situation reports” as part of a stock trading hobby it is clear that at around 80,000 cases the Chinese just stopped, as the numbers flat lined. Interestingly, it was right around that time (week of Mardi Gras, 2020) that Europe and the US starting their massive testing regimes. It’s almost as if they said, we can’t let the Chinese end this now.

    So, in my view, we have elements of a means and opportunity case for a pandemic hoax. What, however, might the motive be? Here I will have to delve into speculation, but maybe what we are experiencing here is a case of a Plan B.

    What about this: we live in world of 7 billion people, and finite resources. On top of this, the US is a declining empire, living on borrowed time and money. Twenty years ago the US launched a series of wars aimed at securing the US empire for the 21st century, a series of wars consisting of installing client regimes on the massive lakes of Middle East oil and keeping world resources on the dollar. The aim was to have a energy and dollar veto on Chinese global ambitions. But the wars (seven in five years) took way too long and hit major road blocks (insurgencies, Russia intervention, etc.) By the time the Trump admin wanted to go after Iran, the window of opportunity had closed: China and Russia were too strong, Iran had means of retaliating. Enter Plan B: a massive collapse of the global economy. Perhaps the elites decided, we cannot address the fundamental issue anymore via military confrontation due to mutually assured destruction, so what now? Let’s unite together and push the costs onto our own “peasants.” Plan A was to keep one's nation rich at the expense of other nations. Plan B is to keep the global elite rich at the expense of the global peasantry.

    Very impressive, but with time and brain available can’t you do something useful like calculating the least energy needed from black holes colliding to produce detectable gravity waves, or maybe calculating when QE will have reached the bottom of the barrel or….😎

  • From the New York Times news section: The more than one million Asians who live in New York City are, as usual, of negligible interest to the New York Times. Including in racial comparisons another more competent group besides whites would shed useful perspective, but of course that's the last thing the NYT wants to...
