Mass containment cannot be enacted at the whims of medical bureaucrats. Not even in China. Nationwide house arrest requires vast popular support, and so it is unsurprising to find that lockdowns and Corona alarmism travel together.
In late January, as the WHO pondered whether to declare a public health emergency, social media filled with videos of people collapsing in the streets of Wuhan. In a curious pattern that we’ll see repeated over and over, these videos were immediately picked up by the press. The world has now witnessed almost 90 million Corona infections. Nowhere in the West has anyone experienced sudden, incapacitating Covid symptoms like these. What is more, all of these videos appeared on or just after 23 January, the exact day that the Chinese locked down Hubei province.
These videos were all fake. They strike us as farcical today, because we have been sold a very different Corona mythology. Our stories are more about how Corona will kill our grandparents, overwhelm our hospitals, reinfect the recovered, and cripple the healthy. They are part of a much different information campaign, and yet they belong to the same
general playbook: First, a government opts into mass containment. Then, alarming information fills the airwaves to justify the restrictions.
The iconic March 2020 cell-phone photograph by Emanuele di Terlizzi, of a military convoy in Bergamo transporting the corpses of Corona victims. One of many curious and well-timed pieces of viral internet content that served to further pandemic hysteria—lending it in an organic, authentic feel.
This goes back to the disappearance of commentary on most News Sites starting around 2014-2015. They want to disappear the True Consensus, and create a Fake Consensus.
Wow, the outright fraud in the media is even worse than I suspected.
Come on - you should realize by now the media is complete BS.

Yes, but now it is shockingly blatant.
It's quite obvious our news media is just propaganda. Their mistake was opening up comments in the first place. I learned more about what was going on in the world reading comments than I would ever get out of reading the article itself. I don't think I'm alone either. When comments disappeared, so did the readership.
In the infrastructure bill the government is pushing though is direct support for our "news" media.
Hence the "Misleading" crap on Social Media... What I love about Misleading is that the censors aren't saying the fact is wrong, but the conclusion the writing is drawing from it is "unapproved" - it "leads away" from the Peddled Narrative.
CBS has been a leftist company... it will not change. They are deep into the swamp, and are stuck into the shit that has settled to the bottom. even if you drained the swamp, you will still see CBS in it like a beached whale.
NBC is much worse than C'BS' at when I am at.
Whipping up a crisis
The wall between journalism and activism is badly corroded
October 18, 2021 | 8:30 pm ...
I can’t say for sure why The Daily botched the whip issue. I can say that ‘which side are you on?’ thinking is endemic in journalism right now, and it rears its head most perniciously when the ideological stakes are high. ‘Are we going to include that whipping thing because everyone says it’s true, or are we going to fact-check it?’
Who wants to be seen, in a business dominated by liberals, as the journalist who doesn’t take racism seriously, and ‘downplays’ the horror that everyone thinks they’ve seen? I’d offer a different version of Mr Jack in the Box’s Manichaean choice: are you an activist or a journalist? Which side are you on?
The only reason we talk about transgendered bathrooms and transgendered kids, is because THEY constantly do. Have either of these issues effected you? My bet is they haven't. I am in Silicon Valley, and I remember hearing about BLM and Antifa constantly but it only effected me once in San Jose. It was really a small handful of people running around and making it impossible to drive through the city. I wouldn't say it was more than 100 people. For that, we had national coverage of them.
It's honestly a waste of your time to keep ahead of the BS coming from NBC and CBS.
Pfizer-Sponsored NBC News Caught Lying About COVID and Kids
On a recent episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore called out Dr. John Torres, medical correspondent for NBC News, for overplaying COVID’s risk to children.

On a recent episode of “The Jimmy Dore Show,” comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore accused Dr. John Torres, medical correspondent for NBC News, for overplaying COVID’s risk to children and reporting incorrect statistics.
“This is a story about how money influences corporate news,” Dore said, before playing a compilation video of Pfizer sponsoring newscasts on CNN, NBC, CBS, Good Morning America, ABC News, MSNBC and 60 Minutes.
“So what’s the result of all that Pfizer money going to newsrooms?” Dore asked. “Here’s how they’re going to report on the Pfizer vaccine being authorized for children who are at almost zero risk, according to the science.”
Dore played a clip of Torres on NBC’s Today show explaining why parents should vaccinate their children with Pfizer’s vaccine.
Torres recited statistics — including the statement that “there have been 146,000 COVID deaths [among children]” — that aren’t corroborated by any government health agency.
“I don’t know where this guy is getting his information but it’s certainly wrong,” Dore explained.
Dore pointed to an Oct. 8 article in USA TODAY which cited data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showing “fewer than 700 children have died of COVID-19 during the course of the pandemic.”
“John Torres of NBC just told us 146,000,” Dore said. “Whenever they make an error it always happens to be in the pro-Pfizer direction.”
Dore suggested they “want to scare you to death” so you get your kid the Pfizer shot. “Despite the risk being almost immeasurable, they are trying to tell you that the risk is urgent,” Dore said.
“According to the CDC,” Dore said, citing an article in New York Magazine’s Intelligencer, “the child mortality risk from COVID is actually lower than the flu.”
“But would you know that from watching NBC’s coverage?” asked Dore.

It's honestly a waste of your time to keep ahead of the BS coming from NBC and CBS. The primary point of "mainstream news" is propaganda but secondary, it's to waste your time.
The only reason we talk about transgendered bathrooms and transgendered kids, is because THEY constantly do. Have either of these issues effected you? My bet is they haven't. I am in Silicon Valley, and I remember hearing about BLM and Antifa constantly but it only effected me once in San Jose.

The media makes small things seem huge, and huge things seem small all the time. For example the "crowds" for Clinton versus "the few fanatics" that showed up for ...
Here are a few quotes from the interview:
On threats from the press (Dr. Alexander):
A reporter with the Washington Post told me, “We work as a pack. When we come at you [for our stories] we know there’s a small number of you who are going to commit suicide. We know you’ll take your life. It’s par for the course. We’re going to burn your life down. By the time we’re finished with you, you won’t be able to get a job. We’ll strip you of your home. We’ll do anything we need to do to turn you into a pauper. And if you survive all of that, we’ll write in such a way that we’ll incite some sick nut job to come after you, stalk you and your family, and harm you.”

Conflict of Interest? Bill Gates Gave $319 Million to Major Media Outlets, Documents Reveal
According to MintPress News, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated at least $319 million to fund media projects at hundreds of organizations including CNN, NBC, NPR, PBS and The Atlantic, raising questions about those news outlets’ ability to report objectively on Gates and his work.
By now the double standards and missteps of those who want to “flag,” ban and de-platform their way to a healthier democracy are well established. The Wuhan Lab Leak hypothesis was a dangerous, racist conspiracy theory until, well, the evidence suggested otherwise. The acquiescence of many in big tech and at-large media outlets to hardline trans ideology prevents the statement of obvious scientific fact.
Another buried story was local cities blocking access on major streets so that the rioters wouldn’t enter those cities.
Bill Maher: ‘If Don Jr. Had Done What Hunter Biden Had Done, It Would Be Every Night, All Night on MSNBC’

From the Bill Mahaer article above:
So, every Democratic politician has to wear on his sleeve every silly, stupid woke thing that the fringe left does and the red team has to wear kids in cages and lock her up and all that kind of stuff.”
Bill Mahaer still has to spout shit like "kids in cages" to pander his audience. "Kids in Cages" was Obama.
KENOSHA, WI—In a verdict that surprised both the prosecution, defense, and judge, the jury for the Rittenhouse trial declared that the Media be found guilty on all counts.
The courtroom fell silent as the jury foreman stood to read the verdict, “We the jury find the media guilty on all counts, including the egregious use of its influence to lie to the American people.”
The jury then listed guilty verdicts for the following allegations:
Painting an innocent American teenager as a white supremacist terrorist.
Painting violent, communist criminals as peaceful, innocent victims.
Using its influence to sow painful divisions in the greatest nation on Earth.
Using minorities as pawns in race-baiting schemes just for ratings.
Inciting violence on vulnerable neighborhoods and minority-owned businesses.
Giving an entire show to Brian Stelter.
Upon hearing the verdicts, the judge summarily sentenced the Media to continue its inevitable decline in viewership and trust, until they either strive for objective journalism, or disappear entirely.
Following the verdicts and sentencing, the Media immediately reported to the American people that a murderous white supremacist terrorist was set free, given a KKK outfit and bazooka, and told to kill, kill, kill.
the world erupts (again) in protests against tyranny
and once more, it's "crickets" from the US media

meanwhile, back in america, THIS is trending:
so, while, yeah, clearly we inhabit clown world, amidst all the endless bread and circuses, a “mr. cynical paws” kind of cat might be temped to observe:
why, it’s almost as if the media/government complex is seeking to hide how vulnerable the state is to uprisings and how far out of step these ersatz bio-fascist dictators have become with the mood of the people.
be a shame if someone came along and helped spread the news…

Black, White Americans Join Hands Around Common Cause Of Launching Journalists Into The Sun
U.S.—In a rare moment of national unity, Americans of all races, backgrounds, and creeds have joined hands together across America around the shared belief that we should immediately launch all mainstream media journalists directly into the sun.
"I know we don't agree on much these days, but this one's a no-brainer," said Dale Smith, a white guy from Townville, Tennessee. "I'm honestly not sure why we didn't do this a long time ago."
Darnell Woodson, a black small business owner from Baltimore, agrees. "Wait a minute! We haven't launched all the lyin' journalists into the sun yet? Well, no wonder things are so bad," he said.
Citizens, experts, and policymakers all agree that gathering up the people most responsible for the racial hatred and division in this country over the last decade, loading them all into a rocket, and launching them straight into the nearest star as quickly as possible is the most effective thing we can do to promote healing in America.
Elon Musk has announced he will dedicate one of his very own SpaceX rockets for the task. He will also dedicate a second rocket large enough to hold Brian Stelter.
Story at-a-glance:
The International Grand Committee on Disinformation (IGCD) consists of “an international array of legislators, policy advisers and other experts” who work together “to forge international alliances that bring shared, effective strategies into the battle against online disinformation.”
The founders of the IGCD are four members of the British and Canadian Parliaments, including British Member of Parliament (MP) Damian Collins, who is also on the board of the Centers for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). The CCDH fabricates reports that are then used to strip people of their freedom of speech rights.
Logistics for the IGCD are provided by the Reset Initiative (a not-so-subtle reminder that censorship is a requirement for The Great Reset), which is part of The Omidyar Group of philanthropies.
Omidyar funds Whistleblower Aid, the legal counsel for the fake Facebook “whistleblower” Frances Haugen, who has testified before U.S., French, British and EU lawmakers, calling for more censorship.
CCDH chairman Simon Clark also has ties to Arabella Advisors, the most powerful dark money lobbying group in the U.S.
If you suspected censorship was being coordinated on a global scale, you’d be right.
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Americans are appalled after learning the racist President Biden has banned travel from 8 African countries.
"If you are able to travel freely to America, then you ain't black," said Biden. "We have a new COVID variant or something like that. All the Africans have gotta stay out."
Voters are reporting that they are devastated to learn Biden is just as racist as Trump was when he restricted travel from China. Just like when Trump did it, Biden's racist travel ban is obviously an attempt to keep people of color out of our country while using COVID as an excuse. Sad!
Civil rights groups and various liberal organizations have not yet come out and condemned the racist, xenophobic travel ban as they did during the Trump travel ban. This is probably just because they forgot, or maybe they had too many Thanksgiving leftovers and fell asleep.
