Thanks, interesting.

World renown vaccine specialist, Geert Vanden Bossche, gave a groundbreaking interview this week risking his reputation and his career by bravely speaking out against administration of #Covid19 vaccines. In what may be one of the most important stories ever covered by The Highwire, the vaccine developer shared his extreme concerns about these vaccines in particular and why we may be on track to creating a global immunity catastrophe.

That was cool with me too. Its not their fault....their just follow orders.

Okay. I understand you now better. Just follow unenforceable orders and guidelines.

Bitcoin says

Thats great! I applaud you. But what do you do if you want to go out to eat? You still wear your mask to get in, right? Otherwise they dont serve you?

Not outside of CA. Hell I didn't even wear a mask on the plane or airport during my last flight. Haven't worn a mask to table in over 9 months. Always have it, never use it. Our restaurants just stayed open where I'm at in IL. I don't think you realize that much of the country has been basically wide open and non-mask wearing since June 2020. Just stay out of the big cities and life is totally normal.

It's the reason I won't travel to CA for a while. I have no interest in the East coast. I do like CA though. Unfortunately a lot of people are thinking the same and not going to travel there. Biden will probably bail the state out though because of the VP whore that y'all somehow elected as a Senator. I didn't vote for Biden so she's not my VP.

Pretty much... The big cities are just virtue signaling masked idiots. Suburbs (where I live) are 50/50. I don't own a mask. I refuse to wear one. People who try to stare me down, I just stare back. They break eye contact first 100% of the time.

I had a lady try to mask shame me the other day, and I replied and said: "explain Texas then." She quickly shutup and scampered away.

Our life hasn't changed at all, other than we avoid a few woke stores now, but we never stopped living - unlike btc.

Same boat: I have a ton of friends and family in CA, but refuse to visit with the idiocracy that has gone on. We spend most of our vacation dollars in Florida now.

So strange, all of these Sperg Experts still give the New World Order the benefit of the doubt that they were acting out of some kind of beneficent motive operating for the public good instead of decades of planning to psychopathically decimate and control the human race.

They think they will respond to 'reason' HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Splurt, barf!

I'll bring a neck gaiter for travel. That's about it because I like travel. Where we live no one really gives a shit about covid. Really didn't since the 15 days to stop the spread bull shit ended. People were worried during that period, but once you found out no one you knew died or even had it, you just move on.

The hype was supreme. We legit stayed at our house for 15 days outside of one big grocery purchase. No visits to friends, family or neighbors. After that we knew covid was a joke. This is the classic case of yelling fire in a crowded theater. Future viruses are not going to be taken seriously that could be actually deadly. Most likely to get Trump out of office. Not sure of that since the whole world reacted. But it seemingly is a BS flu bug at this point.

Saw couple of people I haven't seen since the start of this WuFlu shit last year. Acquaintances I know from a common hobby, not close friends. Holy fucking shit: both got vaccinated over last several weeks, were wearing masks outdoors in an open field and all they have to talk about was the fucking vaccine - how they got lucky to get theirs, how I need to hurry up and schedule it for myself, how "everybody" in their offices have been jabbed, how they still wear masks, have plexiglass dividers and almost hourly surface cleaning there (and were very cheerful about that), how it's weird and unusual that I haven't got it yet while "everybody else" have been "vaccinated", yada-yada-yada.... They literally couldn't be steered into any other topic, just fucking covid and motherfucking "vaccines" for almost 40 minutes until I got tired of that shit and left.

It does seem to appeal to a certain middle and upper middle class hypochondriasis OC disorder that pervades many deluded LibbyFucks, along the line of extremes of veganism, diet fetishism, health ritualizations, holistic beliefs, etc.
These are the people who keep quacks in business, and now, are lemmings for the Globalist Terror.

Never underestimate the power of delusion. If people can believe that Bitcoin is a currency, that double masking can save us from a virus, that Aliens from out space can travel to earth and are interested in humans, or that AGW is an existential threat to the planet, they can and will believe anything. Millions, perhaps billions of people believe one or more of these giant frauds.

You and I don’t believe it but that doesn’t mean a substantial minority or even sizable majority could not be cowed into new or extended delusions of viral doom. Or maybe that is what the PTB want, to get us to let our guard down so everyone will just go about business as usual when a true plague is unleashed.

But I think it is the former, and the PTB are just shit testing us to see who will eat a turd and call it filet mignon. If the PTB get their way, It will soon be required not only that you believe lies, but that you persecute anyone who tells the truth. Welcome to the great reset, new world order new normal.

Glad to see you've resisted getting persuaded into any delusions here, lol.

Glad you like your cell Winston, how many fingers am I holding up? Do we need to bring in the rats again?

PeopleUnited says

Well, Bitcoin is seen as digital Gold. Some smart people like me call it the best thing since sliced bread. Its a wealth generator. Sure, its also a currency but not meant to pay for day-to-day transactions like buying coffee. You can use stable coins or doge coin for that. Bitcoin is more for big ticket items. Like buying a Ferrari California or a vacation home.

I bought Bitcoin at 15k.....its already at over 50k....and its been only 6 month! Amazing :) Thank god I didnt leave that money sitting in my bank account.

PeopleUnited says

It was always that way, they're just taking extreme advantage of this mode of behavior now.

...it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country. -- Hermann Goering

Bingo! Vaccines are becoming the biggest eternal revenue source ever. Think the Fauci/Pelosi mafia is going to give that up? No fucking way.

Not to mention the vast expansion of government authority that the virus excuses.

Bitcoin says

yep, you just cant fault businesses....its better to follow the order and have masks than get shut down. Common sense.

Or just stay open. That's what we did in IL. Everything was "guidelines" and no one could be shut down. Wasn't law. Unless the CA legislature voted on it and the governor signed it, business could and should have been open. Governors are not dictators. Never have been.

Bitcoin says

Welcome to 2020... errrr I mean 2021 in your case. You've been living like a peasant for the last 9 months. You don't get that time back. Time is life. You just lost 9 months of it due to government/governor overreach. Nothing to brag about there. But hey, if average beaches and shitty water make you happy, that's on you. I'd have moved or just kept my business open. Lots of other options instead of justifying living in a place that is poorly run.

Yeah, its great that things are normalizing here.....i really liked not tipping for take out food but I always find myself tipping extra for good service and hot waitresses (sit down).....so its kind of a wash :)

It is true @ Patrick

Today they expect persecution of those who tell the truth, but they won’t stop there. I would not be shocked if by the end of the decade (perhaps sooner) we see actual executions of people who refuse to believe their lies. And those who believe the lies will probably cheer the executions with more delight than a World Series victory.

Think it can’t happen? I’m sure the Germans in 1934 would have said the same thing.

The key is that liberals have been made afraid for their lives through lies about conservatives, especially poor white conservatives.

People do not think or negotiate when they feel their life is in danger.

That is why the media is constantly trying to whip up FEAR in liberals. It's the easy way to control them and stop them from thinking.

One defense is just to be friendly to liberals while sticking to your own beliefs.

WookieMan, you don't have to piss on California from such a lofty height. California has dug itself into such a deep, fucked up hole, all you have to do is walk to the edge of the hole to piss on it.

MarzTheron manages to be funny and depressing at the same time about the 'State of the State'.

Ceffer says

WookieMan, you don't have to piss on California from such a lofty height

people who go on vacation to SoCal and bitch about the place the rest of the year are clearly driven by jealousy. You cant beat the weather, beaches and scenery in SoCal. Plus, high paying jobs :)

WookieMan says

Seems like the neck gaiter is a sign that you don’t take the Covid seriously at all but are willing to comply with BS mask mandates so you can continue normal life. Gaiters stop literally zero percent of anything, but do cover your face from sight, so they pass the Leftist compliance test.
I bought a pack of three a month ago and have been wearing those to baseball games and grocery stores.

Articles like this, make it clear no one wants the vax. They are having to throw them away en masse' due to lack of demand.

This is a hilarious and desperate article.

Those articles are from 3-4 months ago tho. We just reached widespread vax availability in the last few weeks

They are trying to create false perception of scarcity and trigger the FOMO in the populace.

Ahhh, good point... But even 2-3 months ago, they were throwing them away due to lack of demand - which is how a few of my friends were able to get them (they thought they were lucky).

Shaman says

Bingo. I don't like masks attached to my ears. I can deal with what is the equivalent of a scarf. I don't honestly notice it. If I need to be in a place and I get heat without the mask, I just pull it up in front of that person and pull it down as I walk away laughing.

Wearing a cloth mask or even the blue ones is pure retardation. My 5 'o'clock shadow sticks through the mask. So yeah, it's thin as fuck, IF I do wear it. I literally just checked and I can see through my gaiter relatively well.

It would be more effective if you wear the mask to cover your mouth and nose. It wont do much if you cover your ears.

Plus, high paying jobs

Biggest con of CA. Every job offer we've had from CA was 20-30% less than IL. Fact. 6 figure jobs. CO had the best offer at over $300k.

Factor in Covid, you can make the same anywhere in the country if you have the skill. You can also live for 1/2 the costs, maybe even cheaper. I'm $2k/mo living in a high property tax state. Out the gate you're at $2k with just PI in CA. I'm being generous too. Remember you're paying for this stuff after you've been taxed.

No one has to believe me, but being taxed at 13% marginally is insane. Factor in federal? Factor in buying a home in CA? It makes ZERO sense for anyone to move to CA. Joe Rogan as a recent example just saved $13M in taxes. lL would have been a $4.75M tax hit. 1/3rd less than CA. TX $0. My Montana guys and I know some of the TX guys are seeing it. If you own, I'd get out of CA.

Weather is the worst excuse to live in a place. You sound like a pussy. If you're 50 plus you can move to different areas for different times of the year.

There could be an issue with the resume and qualification? Maybe too many typos?

My job pays tremendously well. Maybe NY city could match it but in flyover country I would probably get 0.1 of what I am making now :) Love it here in SoCal. Pool time all year round!

Bitcoin says

Nah, you just don't get paid more in CA. Fortunately we own our own businesses and are not reliant on employers for money like we did at that time. The offers were from years ago. Likely worse now. Pensions don't pay themselves.

Point out typos as well? I'm sure I've made them, but please, point them out.

Well, i actually like that. One guy less who can afford to come here means 1-2 cars less on SoCal's streets :) Thank you!

Both me and my wife also make far more in CA than we would in same jobs most other places. Since I work outdoors, the weather is a pretty massive bonus for me. I’ve worked in shit weather before and it sucks. Much rather work outdoors here with sun and a sea breeze.

I do miss the CA climate in the winter time - in GA it's cold and gray, while CA was about 50-60 degrees and sunny.

But I enjoy summers down here better: 90+ degrees, at the lake or beach, windows down etc...

Shaman says

Run the numbers. You don't. Not trying to be a dick. It's not about the salary. Cost of living is a substantial cost IF you can make more in a location. I've ran the numbers from CO, AZ, CA, MT and FL when we thought about moving. Detailed. You can make the same or more, plus cheaper cost of living. CA and CO were the worst choices when we were looking. This isn't opinion. It's fact.

Between housing costs and state income taxes, any gain of income is wiped out. You'd be better most the time losing income and living substantially more cheaply. That's not the American way though. Spend, spend, spend. And you can just live in Kansas and make the same amount. Location for income doesn't matter with most professions.

Pretty funny that the guy who predicted that Bitcoin will go to 1.2k (its over 50k as of now), is now pretending to know our salaries.

It matters a fuckton with mine. AZ and CO aren’t even on the table, nor are any other landlocked states. And until she completes a certificate, it will matter for hers as well. Everyone has their own situation. Many wouldn’t understand why you remain in Illinois when it’s so fucked up politically and tax wise there. It’s at least as bad as California, but lacking the natural features. Yes I know Chicago and Illinois. I went to college there. It’s not great and it’s not terrible. It’s just perfectly average, with a decidedly below average political and tax situation.

Location matters a shitton. Maybe if you live in flyover country it doesnt matter if you work in the south or north (the pay is shitty either way) but comparing salaries of CA to flyover country is like comparing a Tesla to a old Kia.

Bitcoin says

I’m sure he knows plenty about his own situation and he has lots of opinions that are valid. Believe me I get plenty of flack from relatives about why I choose to remain here. But everyone has their reasons why they live in a place. As does he, as do you, and as do I.
