Accountability Must Be Significant & Complete

Accountability could look something like this:

1.) Investigation — uncensored, public, citizen-led (as so much good investigation of the internet age tends to be), professionally compiled, peer-reviewed, publicly critiqued, and all critiques publicly responded to.

2.) Prosecution — professionally prosecuted in a fully transparent process, without plea agreements, or deals for anyone involved, but instead brought forward to trial for each and every party as a doggedly fought case in our adversarial system.

3.) Permanent ban from positions of trust, both public and private — this ban need not be governmental, but could even ...

Sounds like you've figured out the similar reasoning that led to the Commies in Russia wiping out a bunch of people. You also nailed it on the head the reasoning behind China's Cultural Revolution.

Iceland to lift all COVID-19 restrictions on Friday
Reuters

Feb 23 (Reuters) - Iceland will lift all remaining COVID-19 restrictions on Friday, including a 200-person indoor gathering limit and restricted opening hours for bars, the Ministry of Health said on Wednesday.

"Widespread societal resistance to COVID-19 is the main route out of the epidemic," the ministry said in a statement, citing infectious disease authorities.

"To achieve this, as many people as possible need to be infected with the virus as the vaccines are not enough, even though they provide good protection against serious illness," it added.

All border restrictions would also be lifted, it said.

Iceland, with a population of some 368,000 people, has registered between 2,100 and 2,800 daily infections recently. More than 115,000 infections have been logged throughout the epidemic and 60 have died due to COVID-19.

60 / 115000 = .0005

So 0.05% of the infected died from the virus in Iceland. That's actually less than the normal death rate from the flu, which is about 0.1%.

Coronavirus: Face masks could increase risk of infection, medical chief warns
'For the average member of the public walking down a street, it is not a good idea'

Members of the public could be putting themselves more at risk from contracting coronavirus by wearing face masks, one of England’s most senior doctors has warned.

Jenny Harries, deputy chief medical officer, said the masks could “actually trap the virus” and cause the person wearing it to breathe it in.

We made TRUCKERS in CANADA stand up before we did. So much for us being "smart". In 2 years, I have gone from thinking I worked among smart intelligent people to realizing I work with greedy, short sighted, sell out fucks.

Instead of requiring vaccines, the big companies are shifting to allocating resources to departments that will fill their employment and technology needs in three years when the big die off of their vaccinated employees occurs.

As the pandemic winds down it’s important we capture footprints of the data before they wash it away. If you think I’m exaggerating just let this tweet from lockdown proponent Leana Wen wash over you. Leana quoting the editorial board of the New York Times that masking kids is probably tough on kids is the ultimate gaslighting moment.

We are working hard to make sure this never happens again. Stay tuned.

Governments and health agencies played with minute details of our lives like we were pieces on a chessboard, and too many of our fellow citizens were desperate to play along. The ability of the government to recruit everyone down the chain to enforce completely nonsensical rules has been stunning and I think we’re all still reeling from it.

We cannot allow corporate media, governments, and big tech to simply breeze through this as though they’re not guilty of the crimes listed above, as pressure mounts and truckers convoy. “Our media”, or what I like to call Underground Media is getting stronger by the day, and it’s up to us to keep attention firmly where it belongs - following emerging vaccine data, while politically punishing anyone in positions of authority who enforced the insanity. /End Rant

Internal Memo Shows Biden, CDC Following Poll Numbers, Not Science

In his State of the Union address Tuesday, President Biden parrotted COVID talking points circulated in a memo by the firm that conducted polling for his 2020 presidential campaign. The Feb. 24 memo came out days before Biden’s address and just one day before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention eased masking restrictions.

An internal memo from a firm that conducted polling for President Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign advises the Democratic Party on how it can present itself as having “defeated” COVID-19.

The content of the Feb. 24 memo, “Taking the Win over COVID-19,” closely matches statements Biden made Tuesday during Tuesday’s State of the Union address.

The two-page memo was distributed to “interested parties” by Impact Research, a public opinion research firm that provides “strategic thoughts for Democrats positioning themselves on COVID-19 after nearly two years of the pandemic.”

The “strategic thoughts” proffered by Impact Research include:

Declare the crisis phase of COVID over and push for feeling and acting more normal.
Recognize that people are “worn out” and feeling real harm from the years-long restrictions and take their side.
Acknowledge COVID still exists and likely will for a long time.
Don’t set “COVID zero” as the victory condition.
Stop talking about restrictions and the unknown future ahead.

Austria suspends law forcing all adults to have Covid jabs and admits the 'encroachment of fundamental rights' is not justified
Austria was one of the few countries in the world to make jabs compulsory
The law took effect in February and called for fines up to 3,600 euros
Ministers say the law is no longer justified by the danger posed by the pandemic

The law was never justified. It is an outrageous violation of the basic human right to bodily autonomy.

Did they actually ever fine anybody in Austria during those few weeks? I bet not. And they probably never intended to. It was a bluff, a feint, just like in Quebec. But in Austria they actually had the fine officially in effect for some time whereas in Quebec it never went into effect.

NYT: "Do Covid Precautions Work? Yes, but actually not really."

“Do Covid Precautions Work?” asks New York Times reporter David Leonhardt. “Yes,” he concludes, “but they haven’t made a big difference.”

It’s amazing to see a journalist finally confronting all of the data we’ve discussed for over a year now.

Did Omicron spread less in the parts of the U.S. where social distancing and masking were more common?

The answer is surprisingly unclear.

It is honestly hard to write this without overmuch laughter.

The book The Year the World Went Mad by SAGE-member Mark Woolhouse, has now been published as an audiobook and will be available in hard cover on April 12th. This is an important book, for here the author, a key player in the pandemic response in the UK, admits that more or less everything he and his colleagues suggested and the government did was wrong.

In this interview with Spiked-online, Woolhouse admits that focused protection, as suggested by the proponents of the Great Barrington Declaration, would have been the right approach, and that he and his associates knew it. He even claims they suggested it, but nobody listened. However, even if they did, why didn’t they speak up? The scientists who wrote and published the Great Barrington Declaration were denounced as pseudo-scientists – and by whom? Among others, by the very people who knew they were right all along.

In the author‘s own words:

“So how do you protect those people? First of all, since they have to have contact with certain people, you make it as Covid-safe as possible for them to have those interactions. Take all the precautions we know to take now, about wearing masks, ventilation and physical distancing. But that alone is not enough. You need to make sure that the contact themselves does not have an infection and is not going to pass it on to the vulnerable people they’re interacting with. We were talking about this in April and May 2020 to many people in government. But we never implemented it. It never took off. And yet it’s quite clear from our work that this would have had a very significant impact. It would not be enough by itself “You still need to suppress the virus to a degree, but you would not need lockdown.”

The lockdowns, travel bans, school closures and all the rest were useless and extremely harmful to society. But still the scientists in charge of the pandemic response, including Mark Woolhouse, promoted those methods and justified them. They derided those who criticised their methods, cancelled them, claimed they didn’t respect science. But it was the other way around. This, we must never forget.

This book is a good step. But I wonder if the author has apologised to those who were right all along, to Martin Kulldorff, Sunetra Gupta, Jay Bhattacharya and all the other honest, real scientists who had the courage and moral integrity to tell the truth. If he hasn’t, I urge him to do so.

https://markoshinskie8de.substack.com/p/how-i-knew-the-scamdemic-experts?s=r&source=patrick.net

Ending the Scamdemic—at least for now—was simple. The self-styled judo expert/ice hockey-playing (but not very good, take my word for it) badass, Putin, who reportedly cowered in fear of an over-hyped virus, miraculously cured Covid by invading Ukraine. It’s as easy to distract most American adults as it is to distract children.

Further, despite 750—not 15—days of unbroken, opportunistic fearmongering, more people now understand that the media and Democrats whipped the public into a frenzy that misled many to support lockdowns, masks, test and “vaxxes” (“LMTVs”).

The Reign of Terror is losing its political utility. Mandates are being lifted. Coronaviruses will continue to mutate and weaken. But they won’t vanish into the ether. These viruses, and millions of others, will remain with us. Same as it ever was.

Meanwhile, the elliptically-speaking, publicity-hungry Scamdemic mascot, Fauci, is being marginalized. After hiding for weeks, he just resurfaced in a rare non-softball BBC interview and asserted that the LMTVs had “undoubtedly” saved many lives. This mega-lie, backed by no data, encompasses and caps the long series of deeply destructive lies that the Napoleonic bureaucrat and his crew have told for two years.

They’ll hold onto this lie like a dog holds a bone in its teeth.

Yet, data throughout the Scamdemic have repeatedly shown that the most intensively LMTV-ed states and nations fared no better—and often did worse—than those with fewer restrictions. See Johns Hopkins February 3, 2022 study, et al.

It's very clear that the Hunter Laptop finally getting attention has to do with the Dems realizing they must ditch Joe to save themselves, either by November or by 2024.

The 2024 Democrat Primary is going to be the most managed and manipulated enterprise on the face of the Earth. I'd slap $100 down on that. It'll be more obvious than when they told Buttigieg and Klobuchar to drop out despite them leading Biden everywhere in both popularity and cash, and making Warren stick around to split the hardcore Prog votes in Mass with Bernie allowing a Biden victory.

GIven Fauci's recent ramblings, I have a feeling they Powers That Be will try to engineer a COVID return this summer. They will probably time it for the most states not having another legislative session or wrapping theirs up so they can sneak it in.

No they won’t, that thought wont even enter their mind. They’ll continue to think they did the right thing by getting jabbed three times. Google no longer requiring vaccines will change nothing in their head, they’ll think they were right all along.

I know too many people who work at Google to believe anything otherwise,

Sure there are employees who would have got the shots anyway, perhaps a majority at a place like Google. But there must be a significant number who did it only to keep their job. There must also be many who got “fully vaccinated” willingly the first time around but have changed their views since then, because of their personal experience or hearing about what happened to others, or learning the truth about the “approval” process. There is probably a lot of unstated resentment towards the Biden administration for demanding their company do this, and at their company for not pushing back or not making full exemptions quick and easy. Unfortunately it takes courage to admit your opposition to your company leaders and the dearly-held political views of your friends so you won’t be hearing much from these people.
