    Yes, that was a hyper cunning plan by Eli Cohen who was an Israeli spy. He eventually became the chief advisor to Syria’s Minister of Defence. A remarkable story and an incredibly brave man.

    There is also a movie on Netflix “The Spy” that details Cohen’s story. Well worth watching.

    “It appeared to be very serious back then.”

    It’s a battle of epistemology.

    My epistemological framework is that I use first principles logic to work out what is plausible first. There’s wriggle room but Austrian economics and anti-vax are non-negotiable for anybody with such a framework.

    The other epistemological framework is to only believe whatever journalists tell you is plausible (or implausible) and then quibble over seemingly major but actually minor differences.

    So I knew that the COVID virus story was a lie because it wasn’t possible. So “observations” like Italians dying in hospitals or Chinese people lying down on the street didn’t make me scared.

    And just to illustrate my point, in the space of three months from January 2020 we went from nigh on 100 per cent of the world’s population thinking lockdowns were preposterous to 95 per cent believing that it was preposterous not to have a lockdown.

    Those 95 per cent have an epistemological framework that’s designed to fit in but is completely useless at determining truth. They can’t help but continually contradict themselves because they’re continuously moving with the narrative. By the way, it’s not a bug it’s a feature because such people prefer to fit in than make any sense.

    Not a single one of my positions changed because the laws of logic didn’t change. I thought banning travel was crazy, banning church was crazy, banning business was crazy, wearing masks was crazy, getting experimental vaccines was crazy.

    My views are the same as they were in 2019 and the same as everybody else’s in 2019. But most people don’t think at all like me so my consistency is useless for persuasion.

    This is why the Overton window is so important. When you say “the virus is real and deadly but lockdowns are a step too far” you’ve already lost. Same for when you point out their inconsistencies – most of the time you just end up admitting a lot of their beliefs are correct.

    You instead need to contimuously ratchet up your positions.

    For example “this COVID vaccine is a farce. Not only am I sure this vaccine is a fraud but I’m starting to think the entire vaccine industry is a fraud too.”

    But you won’t. So we will lose.

    Given that politicians and the media lie about everything all the time, it pays to always assume they’re bull shitting, to prevent any future buyer’s regret.

    —————–

    Rabz, I think the journalists really believe what they write and report because they don’t know any better, they have been miseducated. These are all early to mid-20s and the perfect vehicles to disseminate everything they are fed by those who should know better, the politicians, bureaucrats and so-called scientists. Editors also bear a heavy responsibility for the state of their industry but if they want to kill it we should let them.

    Some years ago Ben Rhodes, who served in the Obama White House, commented on journalists that they know nothing and are easy to manipulate.

    Learning to live with COVID-19

    Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Chief Medical Officer of Health in Alberta:

    We will not eliminate COVID, which means we need to learn how to live with it. Testing every person with a runny nose or sore throat is an extraordinary measure that we cannot sustain, particularly through the respiratory virus season. Legally mandating everyone to stay home for 10 days if they have any symptoms is also an extraordinary measure.

    Yes and no Kev.

    There are two groups. One is the ‘Crown Estate’ which includes things like Buck Palace, Windsor Castle and a number of others and then there is the private residences like Balmoral and Sandringham that are actually owned by the Queen via the Duchy of Lancaster which is the Queen’s private ‘holding company’. Charles has something similar with his ‘Duchy of Cornwall’ which is how he gets his income because he doesn’t get money from the Crown Estate.

    Under the Sovereign Grant Act the Queen receives 25 per cent of the revenue from the Crown Estate which comes from tourists visiting Buck Palace and Windsor etc. That money is used to fund the staff at the official households.

    The Duchy of Lancaster and the Duchy of Cornwall own vast amounts of prime real estate in London and elsewhere plus many tens (hundreds?) of thousands of hectares of prime farming land that is leased out etc. I don’t know what they would be collectively worth but it would be in the billions of $.

    It isn’t. There are no replicating pathogens because if there were, no organism could possibly exist. I’ve proven this.

    These vaccines are 100% useless and also dangerous (seemingly very dangerous) but they can’t do the impossible and result in greater susceptibility to non-existent replicating pathogens.

    Finland is protecting children from puberty blockers
    Increasingly, it appears that the Europeans are recognizing the dangers of the transgender craze. Now, it is the Finns.

    Those of you who read the North American mainstream media can be forgiven for believing that there is an ironclad consensus on sex change surgeries and puberty blockers.

    The media monolith assures us constantly that these so-called treatments are life-saving; that they prevent suicides; that parents who wish to delay their children from pursuing them should be sidelined; that they are fundamental healthcare.

    States seeking to restrict these permanent alterations to the human body (which include life-long sterility and, in many cases, the loss of natural sexual function) are cast as “attacking transgender children” and portrayed as little better than the segregationist states of the Sixties.

    Almost no attention has been paid to the vigorous debate going on in Europe on this same subject.

    George Christensen condemned by Parliament for spreading COVID-19 misinformation

    Here is the misinformation:

    In a brief speech to Parliament just before Question Time, Mr Christensen called for an end to measures such as masks and lockdowns, arguing they did not work.

    George Christensen and others who make a case should back it up with facts and sources. In this case, those who condemned him would also be seen to be condemning the WHO and its special envoy, Dr David Nabarro. There is also scientific evidence against masks.

    WHO warns against COVID-19 lockdowns due to economic damage

    (October 2020)
    Dr David Nabarro World Health Organization’s (WHO) special envoy on COVID-19

    “We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Nabarro said.

    “The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganize, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted, but by and large, we’d rather not do it.”

    Nabarro said tight restrictions cause significant harm, particularly on the global economy.
    “Lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never, ever belittle, and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer,” he said.

    (He says the above. Then claims he has been “misquoted”. )

    The scientists are preparing to begin the Phase 3 trial, which they hope to complete by the end of the year. That probably couldn’t happen quickly enough, since the world is already waking up to the fact that the vaccines originally marketed as more than 90% effective are actually helping the virus to mutate into more virulent strains.

    Does “more virulent” mean more transmissible? It’s a scary v word.

    Or does it mean more transmissible, less debilitating (as mutating viruses apparently tend to do)? Ie. Cases do not necessarily = illness leading to death.

    So the byron bay guy was looking for a house to buy – which is allowed under the ‘rules’.

    He only subsequently tested positive after he arrived there.

    But they’re going to change him because Example.

    Under the public health orders, people are allowed to travel to inspect “a potential new place of residence”.

    An accommodation provider in the Byron hinterland, who did not wish to be named, said the family had stayed in his dwelling for a week.

    The man was told Mr Radovanovic had purchased a property in the area.

    Mr Radovanovic has been summonsed to appear at Lismore Court next month and will be under strict bail conditions until then.

    So contagious!
    All staff at the accommodation provider were tested and returned negative results.

    Can anyone help me? I’m looking to watch a decent Western filmed in the past 30 years. I’m not looking for 50’s and before crap that Cronkite mentions from time to time.

    From the 90s onwards.

    I’ll bite…Milligan.

    Bacon actually did some serious journalism exposing official corruption in the ’80s.
    That serves as something of a redeeming factor in a career otherwise devoted mostly to being a ratbag/enfant terrible.

    Fair comment. Nilligan is just an activist trailing on the death of j’ism. If j’ismists weren’t so irredeemably stupid collectivists they should be the first and loudest in condemning her.

    True Grit with Jeff Bridges isn’t bad. Also the Deadwood movie. Wifey may not like the swearing but.

    Milligan no doubt is a product of bacon’s tutelage.

    I think Nilligan has a law degree and has probably only seen the inside of a J school for a tongue bath or drinkies. Happy to be corrected.

    The 2 best westerns are Shane and The Wild Bunch, closely followed by The Searchers. Then there is The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West. The toughest is My Darling Clementine.

    But for true Western lovers I would watch the 3 seasons of Deadwood, then the telemovie completing the series; very tough, entertaining and terrific. In fact it may be too tough for you head prefect, I think it would scar you for life.

    A Million Ways To Die In The West

    Official Trailer #1 (2014) – Seth MacFarlane Movie HD
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhmP8UYtipA

    It’s a surprisingly entertaining Western Comedy.

    Also, if you can handle subtitles, this one stick with you, in a oddly good way –

    THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE WEIRD – Official Trailer

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tk80iXCspM

    From acclaimed Korean genre wizard, Kim Jee-Woon (A TALE OF
    TWO SISTERS), comes THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE WEIRD, a classic
    good versus bad showdown shot through with wild kinetic enthusiasm,
    off-the-charts action and, well, a bit of weird. In the 1930s
    Manchurian desert, where lawlessness rules, the fates of three mysterious
    Korean men collide on a train carrying precious cargo. The
    Good, a suave bounty hunter, The Bad, the brazen leader of a gang of
    outlaws, and The Weird, a hard-up robber with nine lives, are swept
    up in a frantic chase across the wilderness, fighting all the way for
    possession of a mysterious treasure map. THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE
    WEIRD explodes in a flurry of violence as the Japanese Army and a
    brassed-off posse of Chinese bandits join the pursuit. Who will claim
    the prize for themselves? In this pulse-pounding adventure, you can
    never be sure who exactly is good, bad, or weird

    I believe QLD police can access your sign in record but only with a warrant.

    Way it should be and a lot more would probably use these tracing apps or QR codes instead of pretending to sign in.

    Good thinking for once, Cronkite. I never did watch Deadwood. I will now.

    Thanks Gez, but I’ve seen Unforgiven and it’s one of my all time faves.

    JC – A couple which probably most haven’t heard of;

    1. Bone Tomahawk (a bit dark, but entertaining)

    2. Hostiles (kind of a quasi-horror take on this)

    Look for any previews or bio on them, i liked them, but maybe not for everyones taste.

    Hope it helps
