We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Posts that I especially recommend for Tueday, March 29, 2022

The Covid-19 vaccine is supposed to train your immune system to recognise the spike protein of the original strain of the Covid-19 virus. It does this by instructing your cells to produce the spike protein, then your immune system produces antibodies and remembers to use them later if you encounter the spike part of the Covid-19 virus again.

But the vaccine doesn’t hang around after it’s done the initial training, it leaves your immune system to take care of the rest, just as it left your immune system to take care of things in the beginning. All the vaccine does is instruct your body to make millions and millions of dangerous spike proteins. So when the authorities state that the effectiveness of the vaccines weaken over time, what they really mean is that the performance of your immune system weakens over time.

Later on, this post summarizes the significance of the data:

 In short, because authorities in the UK, Canada and New Zealand have done such a good job at collating and publishing data on Covid-19 by vaccination status, they have exposed the fact that the triple vaccinated population are rapidly developing some new form of Covid-19 vaccine induced Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).

But because the data in each country is so similar, it doesn’t just suggest that this is what vaccination has done to the people of England, Canada, and New Zealand. It suggests this is what Covid-19 vaccination has done to the entire human race.

  • VSS Scientific Updates During Pandemic Times #13 by Geert Vanden Bossche from his weblog Voice for Science and Solidarity. My reaction: This time he isn't getting in such technical details. This time he addresses four subjects, with the first one being "Covid Vaccines Are Driving More Infectious Variants and Possibly a Lethal One"! 
  • Geo-Politics Is Metamorphosing at Every Moment by Alastair Crooke from Strategic Culture Foundation. My reaction: By the "West" he means the unofficial but de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire and their agenda of controlling all life on Earth otherwise referred to in the Empire's media as the "New World Order".
  • WATCH: CN Live! — Ukraine: The Economic Fallout features a video, introduced by Joe Lauria of Consortium News, of an interview he conducted with Richard Wolff and Michael Hudson. (Note: The actual video starts at 3:00 and the interview starts at 08:05. I've not yet listened to the latter.)
Economists Michael Hudson and Richard Wolff join CN Live! to discuss the economic war against Russia, its boomerang effect on the West and the threat to extend the war to China. Is globalization over? Watch the replay.
  • Europe: The Prospects of an Expanded War Beyond the Borders of Ukraine are Growing by Elijah J. Magnier from Internationalist 360°. My reaction: Magnier is hinting that there is always the well-practiced art of a chemical & biological false-flag attack that was successfully executed in Syria plus the growing confidence among the Nazi leadership of Ukraine that NATO will not abandon them. Ordinary Europeans will ultimately decide whether they will be dragged into a war on the side of NATO against Russia.
Perhaps it is time for countries like France (once the presidential election is over) and Germany to rethink what kind of Europe they want and whether another war experience is vitally necessary to satisfy Europe’s new leader: the United States of America. 
  • Wikipedia Controls the Past, Present & Future by Mickey Z. from his weblog Post-Woke on Substack. My reaction: I can't blame Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales as much as the CIA who orchestrated the corruption of Wikipedia. The fact that he entered the World Economic Forum’s Young Global Leaders program is not sufficient proof that he himself corrupted his own Wikipedia no more than Vladimir Putin is a graduate of the program and is playing along with the agendas of World Economic Forum and de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire. Listen to this interview with Freddie Sayers.
Once again, the programming has changed.

Like clockwork, the wall-to-wall news coverage of the latest crisis has shifted gears.
We have gone from COVID-19 lockdowns to Trump-Biden election drama to the Russia-Ukraine crisis to the Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmation hearings to Will Smith’s on-camera assault of comedian Chris Rock at the Academy Awards Ceremony.

The distractions, distortions, and political theater just keep coming.

The ongoing reality show that is life in the American police state feeds the citizenry’s voracious appetite for titillating, soap opera drama.

The consequences of this are huge and as yet little appreciated in the West. It seems that Russia’s loss of patience with Ukrainian dishonesty and double-dealing over the Donbass will have repercussions that have the ability to transform the world as we know it.
