I haven’t viewed all of the initial part yet but mention of the covid story on Don Johnson’s cruise flick prompted the following ruminations:
I have often wondered what exactly the routine is when these obsessive memes keep being regurgitated. Of course it’s not just covid. There was a time when you couldn’t tune into a TV programme without some transgender subplot. This went through soap operas, kids’ shows, detective shows etc. From “Doctor Who” to “Baby Reindeer” to “Baptiste”, there seemed to be trans characters everywhere and usually played by those who identified as trans in “real life”. Now how did that happen? I will always maintain that the whole trans issue is the most fantastical meme ever to hit the news. As with covid, if no-one in the media had mentioned it, it would never have happened. So how to explain all those shows suddenly awash in the topic?
Without wishing to delve into Ickean speculation on conspiratorial networks, it nevertheless seems inevitable to posit some kind of co-ordinated effort involving nodal points of influence. Of course it helps if there are various supremely rich individuals who would appear to be genuinely steeped in the trans ideology – “Martine” Rothblatt for example.
Such speculation dovetails with the curious monolithic front presented by “Leftist” groups re: covid – the way they all unhesitatingly jumped on the covid meme train and never let up.
And this matter leads into the odd current quiescence of the pandemic narrative – the silence here being particularly notable with reference to those little sites who I’d say were definitely NOT part of some nefarious network. Those sites who were taken in – but who seem to have just carried on without any detailed backward glance at the matter. I’d guess there is a deep seated unease and embarrassment festering there.
All of which leads me to note that since 2020 there has been a speeding up of media nonsense in which there are surges of “shock and awe” followed by sudden cessations where it all just vanishes.
Jeffrey Sachs is a propaganda guy. How is it that he, an economist, was on the COVID commission?
How is it that later, he was able to call out the west causing nord stream to be destroyed? And oddly enough even though one pipe didn't get damaged, they shut it all down and said it'll take months to repair. IT'S STILL NOT REPAIRED???
Same with the false dichotomy of covid: lab leak vs zoonotic. Neither. It was normal death counts manipulated and some hospital and nursing home procedures that caused death before the jabs. Either lab leak or zoonotic stories are a distraction.
