A rebel in my old age

Whats the World coming to?

I started off believing that an untested vaccine was "safe" and would stop transmission of Covid 19 and after traveling an hour into Galway, I queued up, with hundreds of others, some almost definitely already infected with the virus,and got my first shot. 

Then I did the same thing again for my second shot, because I was in the risky category and wanted to the right thing, but then I drew the line. I am almost a hermit here in Derrykyle I just plooter around in my garden carve the odd sculpture, occasionally go out fishing and hardly see a soul so the risk of me contracting and then passing on a virus was very low. 

Now I could be called an "Anti Vaxxer", actually I'm not, its just untested jabs I oppose and wont be getting another untested Covid shot regardless of what I'm called.

We are now learning about Covid vaccine side effects like myocarditis; how the vaccine can affect the endocrine system and T-cell suppression and increase the risk of conditions like Epstein-Barr virus and shingles.

The endocrine system is a complex network of glands and organs. It uses hormones to control and coordinate your body's metabolism, energy level, reproduction, growth and development, and response to injury, stress, and mood.  

But the WHO and Governments are still pushing vaccines? to admit they were wrong would be better in my eyes than trying to cover up things, and I think the truth will out in the end. 

Then there is the testing of "passports" to control peoples movements and access to events/ restaurants/ travel etc during the pandemic. I think this was and is part of a plan to digitize and eventually control all aspects of our lives. Wow this makes me a conspiracy theorist and an anti vaxxer, told you I was a rebel. 

So I watched and listened intently to the World Economic Forum in Davos this year for the first time and was horrified at what this group of so called "Elites"have planned for us all.

The drive to Net Zero, I am convinced will bankrupt us and do next to nothing to stop global warming, how can it when the biggest emitters are not signed up. 

They rolled out Al Gore in Davos, he has made $350 million out of climate alarm-ism, he set up a green investment firm now worth $36BN that pays him $2m a month... as he warns about 'rain bombs' and 'boiling oceans'  It's like the bankers who caused the 1980 crash receiving huge bonuses, you get rewarded for getting things Wrong. So Ive become a Climate Skeptic.

CBDC's and the phasing out of cash. Do I want to live in a World where everything I do or buy is monitored by Government? Nope.

CBDC's are an additional instrument of government control over citizens rather than just the convenient, safe, and stable medium of exchange they are being sold as. I watch what is happening in China who are the leaders in CBDC's, anyone not towing the party line has their rights taken away, for example they cant travel or access the internet. 

Ohh that wont happen in a democracy!!! what about the Canadian truckers who were protesting at having to have Covid shots whose bank accounts were frozen until they stopped protesting.

Digital ID's a person’s overall digital identity is vastly different and more complex than a simple digital ID. A digital identity encapsulates a person’s online activity, biometric behavioral data, and a number of other important aspects that allow people to login into the online community every day and interact.

There is no free market for ideas in China, no genuine rule of law to protect basic human rights, and the Chinese Communist Party has a monopoly on power. That institutional infrastructure is not conducive for a robust civil society, a free financial market, or trust in governance. 

So far I can be labeled, an anti vaxxer, a conspiracy activist, and a climate skeptic, what else can I add to my resume? ohh yep I am not interested in any one else's sexual preferences, I don't want to hear anything more about gender or pronouns so apparently I'm trans phobic. 

I don't think the ripping down of statues because of links to slavery has done one iota of good for anti racism, in fact I think it has probably done the reverse so I'm probably to be branded a racist as well.

I like Neil Oliver's "Love letters to the British Isles" I find it informative and entertaining (unlike Love Island) so may well be a white extremist.

Back to the WEF, At Davos, John Kerry the US climate advisor said the government has to spend yet more “money, money, money,” like a drunken sailor is the only solution to global warming.

At the end of 2022 more than 28,440 onshore turbines with a combined capacity of about 58 gigawatts (GW) were in operation across Germany.  

Over the last decade, journalists have held up Germany’s renewables energy transition, the Energiewende, as an environmental model for the world. Over the past five years alone, the Energiewende has cost Germany €32 billion a year. Germany’s electricity prices are more expensive than those in all the other G20 countries. And yet Germany is still the highest carbon emission country in Europe with 628.9 million tons emissions in 2021. 

If renewables can’t cheaply power Germany, one of the richest and most technologically advanced countries in the world, how could a developing nation leap frog fossil fuels and remain "developing".

So in conclusion my rebel advice, take it or leave it, is say

No to Digital ID's, No to Net Zero by 2030, No to CBDC's, No to un-elected Elites dictating policies, No to mainstream media sponsored propaganda, No to the new form of colonialism Datafication, No to constant apologies for things that happened well before our times, No to cancelling people exercising their right to free speech.

Central Bank Digital Currency

According to the Central Bank of Ireland "A digital euro would be a central bank liability (similar to physical euro banknotes and coins), except offered in digital form. It would be a fast, secure and easy to use instrument, which would be available for use by European citizens and businesses for the everyday payments. A digital euro would ensure that citizens of the euro area would continue to have access to widely accepted, safe and trusted means of payment for the digital age."

 CBDCs are divided into two types. These are wholesale and retail. Financial institutions are the primary users of wholesale CBDCs. Retail CBDCs are similar to physical forms of cash.

At the moment I can have a monetary transaction concluded with the exchange of cash that is private between myself and the person I am transacting with. This will end when cash is phased out, no transaction will be unrecorded. I believe surveillance leads to the government tramping on individual rights so I am against Digital Currency and Digital ID's especially when they are linked like China has done.

In 2018 in China, the eastern city of Suqian announced a plan to score the “trustworthiness” of every adult resident. Everyone would start with 1,000 points. They could get more for performing good deeds, such as voluntary work, giving blood, donating bone-marrow or being a model worker. Points would be deducted for bad behavior such as defaulting on loans, late payment of utility bills, breaking the rules of the road or being convicted of a crime. Scores would be recalculated monthly and allow residents to be sorted into eight categories, from AAA (model citizen) to D (untrustworthy).

Model citizens get incentives and untrustworthy ones have their liberties like travel removed, its a great way to keep your population under control making sure they tow the party line. 

If you think this wont happen in a democracy it is happening already, take the Canadian freedom truckers case that freezed hundreds of bank accounts associated with protest organizers and Canadians who had blockaded Ottawa’s streets with their vehicles. 

The social credit system is already here in Europe here we are well accustomed to credit checks: data brokers such as Experian trace the timely manner in which we pay our debts, giving us a score that's used by lenders and mortgage providers. We also have social-style scores, and anyone who has shopped online with eBay has a rating on shipping times and communication, while Uber drivers and passengers both rate each other; if your score falls too far, you're out of luck.

Imagine a World where you cant buy anything without having permission, where every daily choice you make is monitored and logged into a database watched over by Government.

 

John Kerry

The Worlds largest study of global climate related deaths every year to abnormal temperatures has been done by Monash University in Australia, the study used 43 countries’ baseline data across five continents with different climates, socioeconomic and demographic conditions and differing levels of infrastructure and public health services – so the study had a large and varied sample size, unlike previous studies.

It found 9.43 per cent of global deaths could be attributed to cold and hot temperatures. This equates to 74 excess deaths for every 100,000 people, with most deaths caused by cold exposure.
Importantly, cold-related death decreased 0.51 per cent from 2000 to 2019, while heat-related death increased 0.21 per cent, leading to a reduction in net mortality due both to cold and hot temperatures.

You can check the study at https://www.monash.edu/.../worlds-largest-study-of-global...

Maybe John Kerry the US Climate envoy recently at the WEF forum should have referenced this data rather than preach in his Evangelical fashion that "10 million people are dying annually from the heat" – a statistic that he used to illustrate the urgency of action in what he referred to as the world’s hottest year ever.

I find it shocking to hear the US climate envoy appear to give such a misleading impression of what the evidence tells us on heat-related deaths.

Does he get sanctioned for his propaganda and fake news? nope he jets off to his next speech on his wife's private jet, a Gulfstream GIV-SP, which has made 48 trips lasting more than 60 hours and released an estimated 715,886 pounds — or 325 metric tons — of carbon dioxide since Biden entered the White House in January 2021.

To put this in context an average the typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year.
 

Pronouns

Pronouns

I would say I’m flummoxed by pronouns but actually I see them as a way insecure teenagers can get attention. As an insecure kid I used to get attention by misbehaving, actually the misbehaving continued for a fair while, into my forties probably.

I used to do things like drawing caricatures of the teacher on the blackboard before the class started then getting the belt for my industry, or being a clown in class with the same outcome, an average week saw me receive the belt at least a couple of times and for some weird reason I never made Prefect.

However, seeking attention seems to have got out of control, maybe because corporal punishment was banned in schools. Corporal punishment could be a great way to get even more laughs I had one female teacher who used to close her eyes before the belt hit my crossed hands, so if I opened my hands at exactly the right instant the belt would hit her leg. It all went to pot right enough when she started getting her husband to administer the belt as he was the PT instructor and to be honest a real sadist.

There used to be twelve personal pronouns "I," "you," "he," "she," "it," "we," "they," "them," "us," "him," "her," "his," "hers," "its," "theirs," "our," "your." It was quite easy to understand and proportion the relevant pronoun. Now it starts to get harder.

A gender neutral or gender inclusive pronoun is a pronoun which does not associate a gender with the individual who is being discussed. So now I have to remember for starters

SHE	HER	HER	HERS	HERSELF
HE	HIM	HIS	HIS	HIMSELF
zie	zim	zir	zis	zieself
sie	sie	hir	hirs	hirself
ey	em	eir	eirs	eirself
ve	ver	vis	vers	verself
tey	ter	tem	ters	terself
e	em	eir	eirs	emself

 

All this is fair enough if someone doesn’t know what gender they are and wants some attention I say go for it, call yourself a ve and wear a wee badge so we all know you want attention.

 

For myself I have decided to just ignore this trivial fad and either cross the street if I see a pronoun badge or pretend to be blind actually a white stick could be handy if the pronounee insists on further imposing their attention seeking.

 

As of the second quarter of 2022, the New York City-based asset management company BlackRock had total assets under management (AUM) of around 8.5 trillion U.S. dollars. It is hard to visulize a trillion so to give you an idea, if you had one trillion dollars and spent one million an hour, it would take 411 years to spend all the money.

BlackRock obviously has significant influence with companies, investors and governments because of the vast array of shares, bonds and other assets it controls. BlackRock’s absurd liquidity means that if you look at just about every major publicly traded company in the world you’ll find that BlackRock is its first, second or third-largest shareholder. Go ahead, try it.

BlackRock also owns part of CNN and FOX, meaning they can unilaterally influence bipartisan information flow and also manipulate what we buy, sell and consume. A true unelected corporate elite dictatin top down to the population.

In 2019 Larry Fink CEO of Blackrock joined the Board of the Davos World Economic Forum, the Swiss-based organization that for some 40 years has advanced economic globalization. Fink, who is close to the WEF’s technocrat head, Klaus Schwab, of Great Reset notoriety, now stands positioned to use the huge weight of BlackRock to create what is potentially, if it doesn’t collapse before, the world’s largest Ponzi scam, ESG corporate investing.

The WEF (World Economic Forum) are not a collective of elected officials they are technocrats and yet they are dictating policy, you can't tell me they are not influenced by the huge amount of money from Blackrock. 

ESG the WEF and how technocrats are dictating world politics

 

Well, ESG stands for Economic, Social and Governance and it’s a WEF (World Economic Forum) initiative. They took it upon themselves to introduce this ESG to identify a set of universal metrics and disclosures.

I’m not against the values of ESG what I am against is the huge amount of money being poured into ESG under false pretences it is just a control measure giving higher scores to companies and countries donating to one side of the political spectrum (the Extreme Left)

Sri Lanka is a country with one of the highest ESG scores of >98% yes that’s the Sri Lanka that is now a Failed State and absolute basket case. In April 2021 it helped the ESG score tremendously that Sri Lanka banned all chemical fertilizers and it put the final nail in their coffin. With no fertilizers rice production dropped by 50 % I can almost hear the technocrats saying “let them eat cake”

It is going to become mandatory according to the WEF for all businesses in 2023 helped on its merry way by BlackRock’s (the world’s largest investment company) huge financing

The WEF are Technocrats not voted in but who have bought their way into power.

With both the political and financial controls in one basket it gives cart blanche to write any laws they wish.

I don’t want more laws dictating what I can say or think I don’t want the WEF technocrats to have a bigger say than Governments who were voted into their position by a public that can vote them out

ESG worth learning more about?
