Prey for piece

 

Convoys arrive and restrictions quickly depart 

Liberties and ringleaders are quickly arrested 

Ministers seize powers and opposition is quickly silenced 

Gifts and earnings are devoured after the first freeze

Then comes the media hush

Then comes the partisan retreat 

Then powers suddenly go back to normal

Who still remembers how this game is played? 

Those who lose will be left behind 

To fend for themselves or starve

Then comes the ultimate junk food

Hot fries with cheese curds and gravy to the rescue 

Of those behind the silence and starvation

Behind the powers masking the science

When poutine invades every living room 

Everyone will draw six feet closer

So that biosecurity basics can sneak in

Making everyone watching happy

Then the muskrat will enter into the great narrative 

Its omnivorous diet will devour world markets

And prevent harm caused by poutine

But the muskrat must be summoned first

And he only responds to one call

The delectable chirp of a desperate bird 

In need of salvation from God

Only this rodent can link stars above 

And save what is left of our souls

Elongating and damning us all

The next meal to be served 

Is planned at a table 

With nice, cushy seats that recline

Entrées and hors d’oeuvres 

Are played out in pieces

On this grand chessboard 

They all designed

Hopium

 

Like warriors in a garden, people actually imagine    They have the power        All the power in the production of idols to venerate        The we of the people even imagines history on their side        But the ones who script the archives are financed by the threes in degrees who win the wars        And they are everywhere        Around the dial of the sun    Building empires    Demolishing towers    Marketing    Wrecking fair play    Burning cities    Martialing law and losing battles                                Yet still winning the wars

We know they actually have the power    And the resources    And the discretionary time    Because we know they authorize and strategize and incentivize and subsidize    The wars    And because the we don’t know shit about finance or war    Because the we pay them to grant rights endowed by their creators, sustainers, and stakeholders        With that investment they microwave and slap QR codes on us like frozen lasagnas because they know we will come back for more        The average Joe, the telegrams    Streamed live with convoys of hopium    Pretends the we is us and the we will succeed 

Like cake with Gloria Gaynor    the we think they'll survive because the we have finally mustered up public courage        But we still have not changed their locks or made their abusive uncle leave his keys    because the law is enough protection        We have rights enshrined and codified in great historical charters    granted by ancestral apes and big banging deities                        and empires of thought

So I dare to play the prophet        Peaceful protesting will not stop this mighty factory    Reset because that button was pushed years ago        Like and share a million times        It won’t make a difference    Because the we and the us pretend to be green hornets        We are more like gardeners in wars than warriors in gardens        Blessed are the slaves on this blue marble of plantations

Little do Hollywood fanboys realize the stage was set    long ago    and that is how empires grow        What they grant they can take away    and they know it        The only person they can't control                                Is God

Merry Christmas (2021)!

 

There seem to be three diplomatic options for holiday gatherings this year:

The first is for families and friends who are fully vacksed to gather together, with the ‘host’ requesting that only the unvacksed wear masks, stay six feet apart, use hand sanitizers, wash hands regularly, and open up windows for ‘proper ventilation’; or that all guests regardless of vacksinashun status wear masks, stay six feet apart, use hand sanitizers, wash hands regularly, and open up windows for ‘proper ventilation.’ And of course, the host should notify all who are invited that they must stay home (and away from gatherings) if there are any indications of sickness whatsoever. Even the slightest indication of sniffles, congestion, sore throat, or higher-than-usual body temperatures must be treated as disease-spreading germ factories. 

The second is for families to gather together according to each family’s boundaries. Whoever hosts a gathering should welcome all invited, vacksed and unvacksed, who are not clearly sick with a contagious disease. That way, no individual liberties are denied, no psychic powers purported, no fear-porn distributed, and no medical apartheid subtly encouraged from the outset. Guests may also wear masks, stay six feet apart, use hand sanitizers, wash hands regularly, and go outside for ‘proper ventilation’, if that makes them feel safer; or even it it merely satisfies the quasi-religious contingencies of faithfulness to their triune god, Science, a.k.a. Big Gov, Big Tech, and Big Pharma; or even if it merely satisfies the functionally religious honor due to the cultural saints they venerate (Fauci, Gates, Biden, Pelosi, Cuomo, et. al.).

The third option is for families to gather together, but only after the ‘host’ has properly vetted and identified all those among their invited guests who are uncomfortable being around others who are healthy, not-sick, but still (possibly) unvacksed. Then, after proper vetting, all those who are uncomfortable gathering around the healthy, non-sick, and unvacksed should be segregated from the rest. This will accomodate all unpredictable paranoia and thereby, also, welcome all mentally and emotionally stable guests within an environment that is actually healthy and celebratory.*** That way, all parties win: the paranoid can celebrate in paranoid isolation, and the healthy, non-sick, and unvacksed can enjoy Christmas together as they always did prior to this Great Reset.

The Infected

Whether infected

or healthy

neither matters

What matters is that you follow the guidelines

Cough and sneeze

Send those droplets

containing the virus

into the air

The healthy ones breathe in

the infected droplets

or they touch a surface

with them on it

No one should assume they’re safe anymore

No one should presume they’re not infected

Symptoms don’t matter

Everyone is guilty until proven innocent

This scary, deadly virus can live 

for hours to days

and possibly weeks

on surfaces, and possibly in the air

Our public health experts have been clear

many times, publicly

about it possibly being too soon to reopen

if the guideline framework they have worked out is not followed

We should not jump over the various checkpoints

and prematurely open up

without having the capability of being able to respond

effectively and efficiently

Our concern should be 

that we will start to see little spikes

that might possibly turn into outbreaks

The consequences could be really serious

We must have an appropriate pace

that is commensurate with the dynamics of the outbreak

When an area pulls back on mitigation

we will see some cases appear

It’s the ability and capability

of responding to those cases

with good identification, isolation, and contact tracing

that will determine whether we can go forward as we try to reopen

It’s not only doing it at the appropriate time

with the appropriate constraints

but having in place the capability of responding

when the inevitable return of infections occur

Researchers still have a lot to learn about this new virus

You’re probably more likely to catch it 

from being around someone who might possibly have it 

than from touching contaminated surfaces

Cognitive Dissonance

Journalist:  

Good morning. In the next few days Americans will die of this novel virus, and those deaths will likely eclipse the total combined amount of deaths in the Korean, Vietnam, Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq wars.

FarmerJoe:  

If you think that’s big, you should pay attention to how many deaths and life-destroying injuries are caused by vaccines. Oh, and don’t forget that Planned Parenthood murders thousands of infants every year, too, FAR beyond covid-19 deaths.

LionBow:  

None of this is true. “Abortion” has nothing to do with “infants”. Vaccines save millions of lives every year, as we don’t lose children and adults to diseases like polio or the measles anymore. You might want to stay away from conspiracy theory websites.

FarmerJoe: 

Wait. Wait. Wait. Are you seriously resting your entire response on semantics? 

My point doesn't depend upon using an apolitically correct term one time. 

To your point: If “abortion”, i.e. the termination of a human pregnancy, has “nothing” to do with infants, then why are they killed inside the womb before expulsion? 

Were the children in the womb not human or alive?

LionBow:  

They weren't "children" at all. You are attempting to change the meaning of words to fraudulently strengthen your statement and pull on heart strings. That is dishonest.

FarmerJoe: 

I’m the one being “dishonest”? 

I agree with all of medical and scientific literature: children, infants, and fetuses are fully human beings. 

So at what point do you advocate homicide (i.e. the killing of another human being)? 

Inside the womb it’s okay, but outside it’s not?

LionBow: 

You are being dishonest. Fetuses aren't infants as you claimed them to be. And, no one should be forced to give up the use of their body against their will. Having sex does not create a contractual agreement to carry a fetus to term.

FarmerJoe: 

It doesn’t seem to me that you care enough about the human-being being murdered inside the mother’s womb. So far, you haven’t answered my other questions.

LionBow: 

I don’t advocate the killing of anyone at any time. But, I don’t think that anyone should be forced to give up the use of their body against their will so that another can survive. "Infants", by definition, cannot be killed in the womb. Fetuses are not infants. Your statement was false. And, no human being should be forced to give up the use of their bodies against their will. Abortion is sad, but the right for women to control their reproduction is vital. 

FarmerJoe: 

Again, you’re playing Semantics. 

Are fetuses human? 

Are they human beings who are alive before being aborted? 

I’m glad to see that you agree with me, that the human being in the womb should not be forced to give up the use of his/her body against his/her will.

LionBow: 

You must have reading comprehension issues. No one should be forced to give up the use of their body to ANOTHER against their will. Women shouldn't be forced to carry fetuses to term against their will.

FarmerJoe: 

Should any female human fetus’ body be forced against its will to give up the use of its body and die?

Honest question. 

Is that justified because the mother is killing the daughter inside her body?

LionBow: 

Your question is nonsensical. My point is simple. People shouldn't be forced against their will to give up the use of their body to keep another alive. Should we be forced to give up organs to save others?

FarmerJoe: 

I find it interesting that I’m being accused of toying with the meaning of words, yet you have changed the meaning of abortion, i.e. the killing of a human being inside its mothers womb, to mean: being forced to give up the use of ones body to keep another person alive. That’s sad.

LionBow: 

I'm not changing the meaning at all. I fully understand and agree that a byproduct of aborting a pregnancy is the death of the fetus. But, when you force a woman to carry a fetus to term against her will you are forcing that woman to give up the use of her body against her will.

FarmerJoe: 

Wow. Now the murder of an innocent human being in its mothers womb is being described as the “byproduct” of abortion. 

How convenient. 

So is it okay to murder a fully BIRTHED child outside its mothers womb if that, too, is a “byproduct” of some procedure chosen by its mother?

LionBow: 

Obviously not, as once the baby is born, it is no longer necessary for it to use the mother's body against her will. She can give it up for adoption.

FarmerJoe:  

Why is it “obviously” not okay once the baby is born, but it’s okay if the baby is not yet born? 

We are both talking about a HUMAN baby, correct? 

Why can’t the mother NOT kill her baby in the womb, give birth, and then give it up for adoption?

LionBow: 

A woman should not be forced to give up the use of her body against her will. Once the baby is born, that is no longer at issue. If we force women to carry fetuses to term why not force people to donate organs to save lives? Because it is a violation of our constitutional rights.

**RETURNS TO CHECK ON THE INITIAL COMMENTS**

Journalist:  

Good morning. In the next few days Americans will die of this novel virus, and those deaths will likely eclipse the total combined amount of deaths in the Korean, Vietnam, Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq wars.

FarmerJoe:  

If you think that’s big, you should pay attention to how many deaths and life-destroying injuries are caused by vaccines. Oh, and don’t forget that Planned Parenthood murders thousands of infants every year, too, FAR beyond covid-19 deaths.

LionBow:  

None of this is true. “Abortion” has nothing to do with “infants”. Vaccines save millions of lives every year, as we don’t lose children and adults to diseases like polio or the measles anymore. You might want to stay away from conspiracy theory websites.

FarmerJoe:  

Vaccines SAVE lives? 

I don’t think you have looked into that subject very deep. 

Let’s start with Gardisil. 

Did Gardisil SAVE lives?

LionBow:  

Vaccines have saved hundreds of millions of lives. Polio alone used to kill 1 in 4 children. Measles used to kill close to that amount. Vaccines have almost completely itradicated them. Just as with all medicines, there are risks, but the benefits far outweigh those risks.

How about this instead?

FarmerJoe:  

I believe I offered resources first. So how about you do better than a quick google search to cofirm your bias, and actually watch the video I linked to and read the book I attached.

LionBow:  

I have researched the subject. There is overwhelming evidence that vaccines are effective and save lives.

FarmerJoe: 

Well then, you shouldn’t have any problem writing a detailed review and rebuttal of the resources I already provided (above)

Have you seen these, too?  

And what do you think of these, regarding diseases, vaccines, and its forgotten history?

LionBow:  

Laugh all you want, but an overwhelming majority of experts in preventable diseases agree with me. You are part of a fringe group that believes in an unfounded conspiracy.

FarmerJoe: 

Since others seem to like this post, they should look into the hundreds of peer reviewed medical literature about vaccine safety. Be informed with real science, not reactionary, blind faith: Vaccine Studies: 400 Important Scientific Papers 

BoozyMerchant: 

The person who wrote that book isn't a doctor and is the director of an anti vaccine book. It's not peer reviewed work at all. It's him manipulating the data of who knows what studies.

FarmerJoe:  

I think it’s hilariously obvious that you have not read the book. 

It contains HUNDREDS of peer reviewed studies cited in it. 

“It’s not peer reviewed at all”, said the idiot who wiki searched other idiotic opinion-blogs instead of reading the actual book.

BoozyMerchant:  

His book analyzes released studies. His own analysis is not peer reviewed and the book was released to horrible reviews by the scientific community.

Why don't you just admit you're a shill for the anti-vaccine movement? There's not one legit scientist out there saying "look, maybe we need to reanalyze vaccine risks." Not one. You're making shit up to push conspiracy theories and authors who make money off the anti-vaxx movement.

FarmerJoe: 

I’m a shill? 

Are you serious? 

I personally know CHILDREN who are vaccine injured 

I personally know adults who are vaccine injured 

I personally know three children who have DIED from vaccines

Do you have anything more to offer than insensitive and naively canned accusations? 

Watch this video and try to HONESTLY accuse all these VICTIMS of being “shills”

BoozyMerchant: 

Fortunately for us all, you have very few followers and very few interactions with real accounts.

FarmerJoe:  

Also, fortunately, I’m not a shill. I just care about others who are vaccine injured, and I care about real vaccine data, and real interactions with people who have been injured by vaccines, and I know others personally who are vaccine injured and/or have died from vaccines.

BoozyMerchant:  

Almost all made up horseshit with a few coincidences. You're completely full of shit, yes. You are a shill. You share videos by people who take advantage of people. You're the second worst kind of human. The worst are the makers of this videos. Then there's you, pushing their lies.

FarmerJoe: 

You cannot possibly be serious?  

I have not met many people as insensitive and conceited and myopic as you right now. 

If you watch the video I linked above, you’d have to be completely heartless to accuse the people who share this as “shills”!

BoozyMerchant: 

They're not shills, they've been taken advantage of. You're a shill. The maker of that video - shill. Worse, you spread this shit. You're literally just a fake news dump to the world. 

FarmerJoe: 

What is wrong with you? 

I don’t have the slightest idea why you have made a point of throwing bogus accusations like “shill” at strangers like me. 

It’s really childish and unnecessary.

BoozyMerchant:  

Vaxxed are movies by Andrew Wakefield. He's a known liar for the anti-vaxx movement. He is a discredited scientist. You're just a pusher for stupidity.

FarmerJoe: 

I get the feeling that the most you know is from google searches and blogs that confirm your biases.  If you’re truly interested in Andrew Wakefield and whether you’re just blindly following the mantras of others, watch this film:

BoozyMerchant:  

I'm not going to watch videos that defend a man that lied, then built a career on that lie. Or did you not know that he had corporations ready to profit off his research that he owned? I'm not interested in anything you have to say at this point. You’re discredited yourself.

FarmerJoe:  

How do you know the film defends Andrew Wakefield if you haven’t watched it?

And how do you know he lied, instead of others lying about him? 

You’d have to watch the film to even comment.

I can’t think of anyone with such an arrogant confirmation bias as yourself.

BoozyMerchant:  

What I said is completely true and provable by the fact you are posting clips from Andrew Wakefield movies.

FarmerJoe:  

Actually, the three video clips I shared are, as far as I know, not produced by Wakefield. 

The first two were from the sequel to Wakefield’s one and only film. 

And the third was produced and directed by an independent studio. 

Adding to that, have you even seen Wakefield’s actual film?

BoozyMerchant:  

He’s literally a snake oil salesman and you are literally a moron for believing him. There's a half dozen books written before him that tried the same thing. All wildly misrepresenting the studies inside. 

Andrew Wakefield basically abused the children in his study as well. He's an unethical piece of shit and you're a moron who follows his successors blindly.

FarmerJoe:  

I cannot fathom how childish and incoherent your remarks are. Please cite these books you’re thinking of, so I can study them also.

BoozyMerchant:  

No. You can Google your favorite author and see all the other books with similar goals that wildly misreport and misrepresent actual science. I'm done with you. You associate with the scummiest snake oil shit in America right now while misrepresenting real science.

FarmerJoe:  

How convenient. 1st you accuse me of being a “shill” with zero evidence. 

Then you claim to personally know a “half dozen” books that are somehow relevant to discrediting what I have shared so far. 

But as soon as I ask you what some of those books are, you name-call and evade.

RandomZah:  

These damn anti-vaccine people need to go to a 100+ year old graveyard and look at all the headstones of children that didn’t make it to the age of 3. Maybe that will help set it right in their minds how well vaccines work.

FarmerJoe:  

Tell that to the parents of children who are severely injured or died from vaccines: https://youtu.be/CC8QZD3IG3I

LionBow:  

So your anecdotal "stories" should outweigh decades of scientific studies and actual evidence?

FarmerJoe:  

*My* anecdotal stories? 

“Decades” of “scientific” studies? 

Do you just regurgitate mainstream pablum? 

You sure don’t seem well researched in either anecdotes or scientific studies.

RandomZah:  

Most every article written by virologist and immunologist’s ever done agree with me. I trust them far more than some rando on twitter. But hey you do you and maybe your children won’t sue you when they get old enough to know what potential pain you put them through.

FarmerJoe: 

They agree with *you*?  

*You* must be someone special.
