The award for MOST CLOWNED LIBERAL ACADEMIC IN THE ENTIRE WESTERN WORLD would have to go to ‘Noam Chomsky’. He who wrote the best seller ‘Manufacturing Consent’. Ok, ok… perhaps we can put his newly found love of fascistic totalitarian control down to old age.

I feel particularly sorry for those 'academically certified individuals' who still firmly believe we're in an ongoing health crisis and are faithfully and unquestioningly following the "expert scientific advice" promoted by their government health officials. It must be terrible having one's 'total lack of critical thinking skills' displayed in such vivid contrast.

PS

This from Dr Tess Lawrie who sums up our predicament as well as anyone & how our politicians have caved in to enormous pressure from vested interests and in doing so have cost the lives of millions of people who otherwise would be alive today. The medical establishment, including the big pharma industrial complex, have put money & power & a deadly agenda ahead of people & lives. We need to look no further when identifying the source of the tyranny

So glad you courageously tackled this subject. The parallels are valid to anyone who is historically literate & awake today

Establishments have forever managed information as a construct, but the establishment you believe you know and trust is not the establishment making the rules. The best way to think about that establishment is to follow the money. Not the bribes paid to buy favours but the money which promotes war, which underwrites dams, power stations, oil tankers, pipelines, windmill manufacturing facilities, military material, revolution, inflation, deflation, covert violence, drug cartels, governments — financing government indebtedness, encouraging government indebtedness, persuading the naïve in government to permit MSM monopolizing, which is say the promulgators of information, disinformation, and the manufactured social concerns which serve to distract from much more serious matters which you may think is betterment for society but in reality could not be more damaging to health and freedom. For hundreds of years private bankers have made it their God to establish their fractional reserve system in every country on the planet while punishing countries which resist turning money creation over to them. Everyone must do their own work to understand the nature of cartelized central banking. Of course it is intentionally made almost impossible to understand — preventing the education of the facts of central banking in our schools and by constantly referring to various economic treatises manufactured to create consent for the innumerable policy decisions made to appear as though countries economies could not be run any other way than the neoliberal way. One cannot really expect these powerful interests to truly inform the public. History records over and over again that establishments are no friend of the people — it is you they feed on. They are vampires feeding on your neck. Once entire societies are corrupted everyone becomes complicit in its devolutionary spiral. There is nothing new about this. And nothing new about concealing these truths from the public. We are all imbedded within the prevailing social construct. The mass of the people believe stuff they would be better off to not believe. Every needs to wake up to the certainty that government is not your friend. The answer is make it your God to inform yourself. No one can do that for you.

Hi Trish, I sent a letter to you today by email. I also posted this letter on my Substack called MY LIFE LENS. The letter describes my reasons for not being optimistic about the future. The dragon image was inspired by The Games of Thrones and represents the Freedom Forces that I hope will someday appear (against all odds 🥺) to defeat the establishment monster that has been devouring Liberty one limb at a time.

There is not much of Liberty’s body left to consume, hence my pessimism.

My parents escaped the former communist Yugoslavia in 1960. If Trudeau is elected it is our line in the sand. Today Croatia is immune from Covid hysteria. To think hubby and I are contemplating living the latter part of our lives in my parents birthplace is hard to believe. We have a 50ft sailboat and it can take us across to the Adriatic Sea where we can live life in peace.

I fish ,I play my guitar and laugh at the bar with my friends ,come home to my wife and pray every night I can do it all over again! Kenny Chesney has the right idea

Thank you Trish for another erudite and sensitive post. If only more people would see the parallels with Nazism. I've also noticed them for a long time and do not understand why others do not.

Divide in order to conquer is deliberate, planned and based on the amount of complient , unquestioning acceptance, Canada and the world, is just getting started. Now 'they 'are coming for the farmers using climate change pseudo science. A couple of my friends and I talk about the horror for the last two and a half-years and shake our heads, stunned really that we could do the shaming and dividing again, as if history did not exist, that we seem to have a final solution - own nothing; be happy, decimate the food supply, starve us all into further compliance. I'm sick at heart every day. Almost everyone I know is fully absorbed into the propaganda; therefore I am the crazy one.

Thanks for the kind words. Sadly -- people who don't want comparisons made are shutting down important debate. As Thorsteinn says it is not about the Holocaust itself but rather what lead there. It was incremental. That is the point.

The reductio ad Hitlerum argument still prevails. People seem unable to understand the parallels. This isn't about the Holocaust. It is about what happened before it.

Thank you Trish for keeping the torch of TRUTH lit! Many of us in the camp that refused the clot-shot jabs, have also received ad hominem emails from former friends and current neighbours. Many of us in this 'fringe' camp felt the initial onslaught of the overwhelming corporate media campaign to spread fear porn. We were told that the jabs known as *vaccines*, were both "safe and effective". How could "they" know that, after only 10 weeks of trial data, since, all was hushed up by the likes of Pfizer and Moderna? Today more and more realize that these same clot-shots do not stay in the deltoid, whether administered by aspirating the needle, or simply jammed straight in. The jabs are neither safe nor effective. Israel is up to dose 5 in only 1-1/2 years.

It is my considered sense of truth, that the sole fact to expose this nascent inverted totalitarianism, is the request by Pfizer to ask for 75 years protection of their trial data, refused by a Trump appointed Federal Judge in TX; especially, considering all governments signed a no-indemnity clause, absolving these corporate piranhas from penalties for injury or death, caused by these same clot-shots. .

What Trish is doing is simply marvellous. We have to be adamant in providing support, financial or otherwise to all of those who have the integrity and courage to speak out.

Yes, indeed Thorsteinn. Adrian from Stateside with his YT channel Trial Site news is excellent, as is his daily email feed re: C-19 etc. Apparently, the site hails from the Netherlands, is fully paid for by the originator yet still needs some $ for support. It is the Netherlands where the farmers are revolting against their gov policies re agriculture.

thanks for this. I have heard so many people say that they hear deep concern from people from the former Soviet Union about the current assault on our freedoms. I wrote a letter to the editor of our local paper two years ago about my concerns about lockdowns. Amazingly it got published and that night I got a call (not sure how she got my number) from an immigrant from former Czechoslovakia who was profuse in her gratitude for me writing the letter and admiring my bravery. Why does it have to take bravery to speak out against lockdowns and mandates? These people recognize that in tyrannical times speaking out is an act of bravery. In the Before Times letters to the editor could be bold and provocative but an act of bravery? Speaking out and rejecting mandates are all we sceptics have. If it requires bravery, so be it.

For Czechoslovakia it is enough to read Kundera to understand what bravery is about and what it leads to in a society like that. We are experiencing precisely the same thing now.

Wow...how great to get that letter!

Thanks a lot for this Trish. What you describe here goes hand in hand with an article by Joshua Styles on Brownstone yesterday, where he analyses the situation based on Milton Mayer's "They thought they were free." https://brownstone.org/articles/they-thought-they-were-free/

Some people now say this is over. We got through it. But I don't think so. For one, we still have the censorship, and it is on the rise. Just to give you an example, a few days back My LinkedIn account of 15 years and 6,000 followers was disappeared and no way to bring it back up. The reason no doubt sharing information that goes against guidelines, which are to a large extent a negation of reality. https://thorsteinn.substack.com/p/linkedin-censorship-getting-worse

I suspect as the failure of the vaccines and the catastrophes caused by the lockdowns get clearer, the censorship will grow worse and worse, and the official narrative more and more bizarre. We still live in democracies, yes, but the mindset has become totalitarian. The uncritical acceptance of blatant lies and contradictions is the best proof of that.

I was just about to provide the same link to the Brownstone! Such a thoughtful article. And the comparisons to today are unmistakable.

Expand full comment

Lots of people say you can't make the comparison but if not now, when? If we are never to forget then we have to talk about incremental danger. I agree with you about censorship growing. Twitter is refusing to host tweets about some Substacks, too. It is election season in the US so anything that challenges the narrative is vulnerable to attack. That is pretty shocking about your Linkedin.

You are also correct that as the true harms of vaccines and lockdowns are exposed, those complicit, including pols and legacy media will demand silence to protect themselves.

Even to those of us warning in early 2020 or before that we were teetering on the brink of Fascism in the US it was a bit shocking the way so many just went along without questioning. Some appeared bound and determined to ignore even a remote possibility that censorship, political evil doing, or medical/scientific wrongdoing existed. And of course the idea we could be headed worldwide to a Fascist like corporatocracy couldn't even be entertained. Yet here we are.

There is a great bit in the Brownstone piece (linked to in this thread) about the experience of those who see the endpoint of things at the beginning and are therefore not surprised (upset, certainly) as tragedy unfolds.

Maybe surprised but not shocked as most will be if they ever pay attention. Backlash?

How many deaths are we willing to accept before asking questions? These doctors were all relatively young, fit and practicing in the GTA. Although they have not found the cause of death they have ruled out any connection to mandated therapy. This is sad, sad only!

DOCTORS PRACTICING IN CANADA WHO DIED IN JULY 2022

Dr Paul D. Hannam, died July 16

Dr. Lorne E. Segall, died July 17
