    No grieving from me when she carks it. She’s a f*cking idiot. Hopefully her kids will smack some sense into her.

    Arky, I agree with (probably) everything you’ve posted this afternoon.

    Deindustrialisation? It was probably underway before, but I believe it gained momentum from the early ’70s when KMart and Target arrived in our towns with all their discounted products.

    Clothing, particularly, was very expensive prior to cheap Chinese imports.That’s why most women had knitted or sewed all of their childrens’ – and their own – clothes. (How many women (or men) could make a dress, or knit a jumper now? How many even have a sewing machine?)

    Cheap utensils, electrical goods, linen… everything. It was enormously attractive to stay-at-home mums with very limited money. Some, including Best Man and me, heard alarm bells, particularly when Aussie ‘icons’ like Bonds went to China. And before much longer, we were dependent on China for everything. Even some medicines food stuffs, for goodness sake!

    Lately, much of the cheap produce is coming from India, South Korea and Bangladesh which, I read, is affecting China’s economy. But we will never return to Aussie made because no-one is prepared to pay for quality, nor can employers afford the prices demanded by ethical production.

    I ain’t finished yet…

    Arky, you mention the sexual revolution, a phenomenon which, in our times, first came to prominence along with motion pictures, many of which, although lacking audible dialogue, had an abundance of nudity and innuendo.

    Then came the seventies, and television, and readily available porn of the Debbie Does Dallas variety. Suddenly, couples realised that he can’t go all night blazing with animal passion… and neither can she. ‘I want some of that!’ was the shallow reaction, causing the divorce rate to rocket and introducing the era of live-in, no marriage (and temporary) love.

    People saw how the TV other half (supposedly) live, with multi-story mansions, dishwashers and live-in maids. And so the ‘I wanna’ mindset continued, prompting a buying frenzy of unnecessary and disposable crap: this has flourished through to today.

    The greatest influencer in the degradation of our civilisation is the rejection of Christianity. When I was a girl, the church was the hub of the community, the anchorpoint for young and old. As people increasingly desert the faith, so do they lose that security. I don’t need to spell out the results of this.

    That is at the core of the problems in the Western world, today. Those living in the west have forgotten their roots. They worship the gold bull-calf, instead.

    When these unproven, experimental gene-therapy drugs first came out, they were identified as mRNA.

    First thing I did was chase up info on mRNA “vaccines” – what stood out was the fact that for the last 10 – 20 years of development, they had not got over the problem of all the test animals dying when exposed to a “wild” virus.

    The ones behind it need the death penalty (crucifixion) not gaol, and all them and their families’ assets consfiscated.

    I have a grandson (almost 21) with a boy who turned one today – granson has been having bad chest pains – I have taken him to the ER Hospital twice.

    I have a granddaughter (23) who has a 10 week old daughter. I have taken the granddaughter to the ER 3 times now with chest pains, headaches etc.

    Both the grandson & granddaughter got the clotshots last year.
    What shits me is that, although these are symptoms of the clotshots, there is no admission by the health departments that the “vaccines” can cause these problems so the real causes are never investigated or treated.

    There will come a time when justice will be delivered to the medical & political/governmental scum.

    ..
    This is the crux of something I have been trying to think of a way to express for a while.
    When the dismal economists try to convince us that we have had never- ending increases in the standard of living.
    I wonder what world they live in, it isn’t the same one I do.
    Getting snowed under in cheap, shitty imported crap and endless forms of stupid and meaningless “entertainment” isn’t my idea of an increase in living standards.
    That they can only see the dollar component, at the same time as the dollar becomes less and less of a measure of value, indicates their obtuseness.
    May I say I think it is in part a deliberate obtuseness, because they think themselves beneficiaries of these trends.
    Like the fictitious university degrees, someone who thinks the country is better educated because we have shoved en masse the bulk of the youth through a degraded tertiary system, is the same stupidity as those pointing to the temporary possession of a plethora of manufactured crap we no longer have the capacity to produce ourselves as an indication of living standards.
    Rented or mortgaged to the eyeballs homes full of stuff destined in the near future for landfill isn’t any sort of standard, no matter its contribution to lubricating the export of more dirt to communists.
    That all the best cuts of meat and best seafood delicacies, the true bounty of this land, ends up flown on ice to the CCP elite while they send us their rancid pork is the true indication of the standard engineered for us.

    Biden tested positive for COVID-19 Thursday morning and is experiencing mild symptoms, including a runny nose, occasional dry cough and fatigue, the White House said.

    Reporters asked Dr. Ashish Jha, White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, during a press briefing where Biden may have caught the virus. After Jha said he didn’t know, Jean-Pierre interjected to say it’s not important.

    Black on black violence

    A St. Louis looter has been convicted of killing 77-year-old retired police captain David Dorn during the murderous Black Lives Matter riots of 2020, following the death of violent felon George Floyd in Minneapolis.

    As reported by National File at the time, the BLM riots were so deadly, that more unarmed black people were killed by BLM rioters in one summer than were killed by police in the entire year.

    26-year-old Black Lives Matter rioter and looter Stephan Cannon was convicted Wednesday of first-degree murder, in the June 2, 2020 slaying of retired police captain David Dorn. Dorn, a 77-year-old retiree who served for 38 years in the St. Louis Police Department before serving 6 more as Chief of Police in Moline Acres, Missouri, was out responding to a burglary alarm at his friend’s pawn business when he was gunned down by Cannon, as BLM rioters ransacked, destroyed, and burnt countless St. Louis businesses in a scene reminiscent of those that played out time and time in again in 2020, in Democrat-run cities across the country.

    The TGA has identified 13 reports where the cause of death was linked to vaccination from 900 reports received and reviewed. This week – adverse reactions 134,126.

    Summarily, deaths running about 5 per week (until the bureaucrats get their hands on the report and say it was something else) and adverse reactions (they don’t accept things like sore arms) 1000 per week.

    Ans the “most” word –

    children and adults are more likely to experience side effects after a second COVID-19 vaccine dose, but most reactions are mild and temporary.

    And –

    The 13 deaths likely to be related to vaccination occurred in people aged 34 – 81 years old. There have been no deaths in children, adolescents or younger adults determined to be linked to COVID-19 vaccination.

    Nevertheless, I’d like to see him back in the White House to finish his second term and hopefully clear out some of the swampy creatures.

    Here is a true story. I took on a 15 year old female who was 25 KG lighter on a cart track. She won the race based on the power to weight ratio. For the record, she was a gun. Very talented.

    She would only keep ahead because of her body weight. I’d gobbler her up every time when it came to negotiating corners and braking zones. When it came to the straight, she would simply pull ahead because she was lighter than me.

    I was happy to kiss her bumper on multiple occasions. She won but knows she lost.

    I understand that the arrangement is that Trump’s focus will be on international relations, an area where he was good, and DeSantis will be an activist VP focusing on internal American issues.

    There’s a hurdle.
    Under the Constitution, a state’s electoral college representatives aren’t allowed to vote for both a President and VP from their own state. Now that Trump is a resident of Florida, in a close election they could find that Florida’s electoral votes are crucial and can’t be used for both Trump and De Santis, i.e. De Santis could lose by default. There may be some workaround, e.g. the Trump/De Santis delegates from all states all vote for some other Republican as VP [not sure that’s allowed, but maybe], then the new VP steps down and Trump appoints De Santis.
    At any rate it’s a potential problem that may make them disinclined to do it.

    I’m amazed my getting a flu shot has inspired such a bizarre diatribe.

    This is what happens when people come to Adam’s Cat and can’t let the other one go.

    Anyone here who has issues with individuals over at Dover’s, SORT IT OUT AT DOVER’S.

    Stop acting like bitches.

    I think rosie was referring to this…

    I note a stupid pin cushion bitch@Dovers just got another flu shot. Her faith in Big Parma is now legendary.

    Her immune system is now at the behest of wackos!

    No grieving from me when she carks it. She’s a f*cking idiot. Hopefully her kids will smack some sense into her.
    [Etc.]

    People here are much more obsessed with Dover’s than people there are about here. It always starts with some chip-on-the-shoulder pissant here saying something snide about the other site. Then when someone responds, the chip-on-the-shoulder pissants start the cant-ridden LARPing victimhood.

    Paul Krugman, pet ‘economist’ of the Left, always wrong about everything:

    Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman discussed his NYT op-ed about how he was “wrong” about inflation.

    Krugman explained that there was stuff “that nobody saw coming,” such as Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and supply chain issues.

    “On inflation, Paul says he was wrong about the issue,” host Mika Brzezinski said in introducing Krugman. “Paul, let’s start with that. Welcome back to the show. Tell us about your piece and … what did you think you got wrong?”

    “Well, partly it’s that there is stuff that … that nobody saw coming,” Krugman replied. “Nobody saw Putin invading Ukraine. I think nobody really thought about logistic supply chains or any of that stuff until suddenly it became a big problem.”

    Nobody thought about supply chains? What he means is, I didn’t think about supply chains, although others certainly did. I was reading stuff about US supply chains for at least a year before that fraud Krugman had his revelation.

    If he had the remotest connection with the reality of how businesses operate, he would have picked it up.

    In the MSM, it’s not what you say, it’s who you are that matters.

    CNBC

    LONDON — Amid political upheaval, an economic crisis and the potential for mass industrial action, Britain faces a problematic, and possibly pivotal, summer.

    U.K. inflation came in at a 40-year high of 9.4% annually in June and pay packets are failing to keep pace, with real wages plunging and workers across sectors becoming more disgruntled.

    The Office for National Statistics on Tuesday reported total pay increases of 7.2% in the private sector and 1.5% in the public sector in the three months to the end of May, for an overall average of 6.2%.

    This led to a decline in real wages — those adjusted for inflation — of 3.7% excluding bonuses, the worst annual drop since records began in 2001.

    Workers across pillars of the economy have been voting for industrial action over below-inflation pay offers — including transport workers, firefighters, doctors, nurses, teachers, postal workers, civil servants, lawyers and British Telecoms engineers.

    The Fire Brigades Union said Wednesday, the day after London’s fire service experienced its busiest day since World War II, that “firefighters are at the forefront of the climate emergency.”

    Quoting comments from around the internet and then commenting upon them is a staple of comments on any blog.
    For what reason do people think that the denizens of other versions of the cat should not be similar fodder here?
    Is there good reasons I am missing?
    (Other than that they are likely to show up here and whinge?)

    I believe it was the last OT Adam highlighted a post caught up in the filter, just so we realise why comments sometimes may not appear and why the filter exists.
    Adam requested we didn’t comment on it, as it’s not that sort of blog.

    If nothing else, the last two years of Catallaxian blogging is at some point worthy of study.
    How a group of self declared “libertarians” went from near two decades of decrying everything to do with government control and regulation, declared themselves over and over again as individualists and masters of their own fate, anti- collectivist and on and on, suddenly started getting themselves injected with some novel crap mandated by some of the dodgiest looking health officers and their shifty politician masters.
    It is really, really a topic that at some future point after the dust settles needs investigation.

    It is at this point worth repeating that the vaccines cost us far more than the subsidies handed out over decades to Australian car manufacturers.
    Where was the outcry from libertarians at this waste?
    Where was the post after post after bloody post from all the usual ones mocking government interference in free markets when it came to this injectable mandated and very expensive shite? Where were the Covid vaccine mandate jibes similar to the “they took our jerbs” and “Oh why won’t they think of the children”? etc etc etc?

    re Dr John Campbell. If you accept the virus has been proved to exist (it hasn’t) and the PCR/RAT/LAMP tests diagnose Convid (they don’t) and all those turning up to hospital with other medical issues, being diagnosed with Convid and then being cited as statistics and that masks are protective and that the vax is a vaccine (it isn’t) and that medical professionals won’t lose their jobs if they stray from the official narrative and positive-tested people with no symptoms are sick and must be isolated (I could go on) then, by all means, accept what he has to say.
    Or he could just be interpreting meaningless numbers.
