    Today the NSWLC ruled that Part 3A of the NCAT Act has retrospective application.
    It means I’ll face a NSW Court on 19 November 2021 under a 2017 NSW law for comments I made in 2014 in Qld.
    I now face potentially $300K in fines.
    This is on top of another $100K in fines I also face under a new complaint for this comment left on this Facebook page in mid-2019:
    “australianspirit.info supports bernard Garynor”
    Seriously. That’s the entire comment I’m in trouble for.
    This new complaint was accepted by the NSW Anti-Discrimination Board earlier this year and will go before NCAT on 8 September 2021.
    I suppose I should have known in 2014 that what I was doing was going to be against the law in 2017 in another state.
    It’s a mistake anyone could make, I guess.
    By the way, the complaints relate to my article linked below from 2014 criticising naked homosexuals who exposed themselves to kids at various gay pride parades.
    The NSW Anti-Discrimination Board thinks that it is unlawful to criticise this ‘behaviour’.
    Just in case you are wondering, I’m not sorry for criticising homosexuals who think it’s fine & dandy to expose themselves to kids.
    In a normal world these perverts would be jailed.
    In a normal world anti-discrimination law would not be used to protect perverts from criticism.

    The CDC did not ‘quietly’ say anything at all about ADE in a White House summary of its findings linked above. The summary basically detailed the situation re longer term immunity and discussed the introduction of booster shots, the usage of which has caused some debate re necessity of all people having these. They say:

    “Taken together, you can see that while the exact percentage of vaccine effectiveness over time differs depending on the cohort and settings study, the data consistently demonstrate a reduction of vaccine effectiveness against infection over time.

    Importantly though, despite waning vaccine effectiveness against infection, data analyzed through July continued to demonstrate the stable and highly effective protection against severe illness and hospitalization for people who are vaccinated. Included in the same reports described before, data from New York State and Mayo Clinic also show that vaccine effectiveness against hospitalization remains relatively high, both over time and during periods when the Delta variant was surging. ”

    Of course the risk of severe disease is ‘enhanced’ as vaccine protectiveness diminishes if that’s the word you want to use for it; the simple truth is that the risk increases once more to what it was before vaccine protection kicked in. No great scare story there.

    Also, Srr, there is no need to be extremely abusive towards Rosie, who is simply stating her very reasonable case. Many would agree with her, even here, and I most certainly do. Vax the over 50’s and let others decide, then set a date and end lockdowns.

    At 18 their immune systems are so active it’s no surprise that the AZ hits them quite hard. I have an ancient immune system and had a bad day in bed the day after it. I didn’t mind too much as it shows my immunity is still alive and kicking!

    Essentially natural immunity appears ( recovered people now ill again) appears to be far superior protection versus vaccinated persons, three months later. Hence, in reference to my post earlier today, being previously infected by Alpha strain results in antibodies that are perhaps four fold or more as protective as the $2 jobs conferred by vaccines when it comes to Delta.

    “Of course the risk of severe disease is ‘enhanced’ as vaccine protectiveness diminishes if that’s the word you want to use for it…”

    ADE refers to specific interactions on the molecular level directly related to the structure and function of an antibody which result in literal enhancement of the pathogen or disease process progression.

    https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/antibody-dependent-enhancement

    In the case of Delta, the mRNA antibodies that were targeted against Alpha are literally locking spike proteins into place ( as well as the virus sporting them) by also binding lipid cell structures adjacent to the spike protein binding sites (ACE2 receptors) on human cells.

    The other thing I will say about the ADE issue being observed with Delta is that the people who designed the mRNA vaccines are directly responsible- in terms of negligence.

    Why (?) because the “spike protein” made from the synthetic mRNA’s introduced with vaccines are not the same spike protein as produced at the direction of SARS COV-2. The ones made from vaccine mRNA have been modified at the ‘tail end’ so that they are supposed to stay affixed in the walls of, and stick out of the cells of vaccinated people. It was kind of a no-brainer that people would possibly develop antibodies that also bound the surface structures of human cells around the modified spike protein’s base.

    Just another of the issues that would have been known prior to the faulty products being put on sale. I wasn’t there, but Jesus these fuck-ups could have been avoided.

    “We will parachute you into Ireland, where you will go to the local town and ask for Murphy. He is your contact. You will say to him, ‘The weather could change by Tuesday.’ ”

    The German duly landed in Ireland, buried his parachute and set off for the town. On the way he saw a local farm worker in a field.
    “Güt Morg… I mean, Good Morning. Vould you know vair I can find Mister Murphy?”

    “Well, Sir,” answers the man. ” It all depends on which Murphy you want. We have a Father Murphy; a Doctor Murphy; Murphy in the post-office; Murphy the Chemist and, as a matter of fact, my name is Murphy.”

    “Oh mein Gott!” thinks the German. Then he has an idea. He says, “The weather could change by Tuesday!”
    A beatific smile of recognition illuminates the Irishman’s face.

    Watching the angry vaxxed disappear up their own illogical orifices, is sad.
    The whole thing, of course, has nothing to do with a virus but just to get to a point where there is not enough opposition to a social credit scheme (starting as a vaccine passport) .
    THE GOVERNMENT KNOW THEY HAVE BEEN TOO SLOW WITH THE ROLL OUT , BUT YOU KNOW BY THE LOCKDOWNS THEY ALSO KNOW THEIR SCARE CAMPAIGN IS NOT WORKING WELL ENOUGH.
    So we get held hostage until we comply.
    There is no other out for them now, as they have gone too far.
    If we consider what a return to freedom may look like for those that have pulled this stunt, then you know, they have no intention of backing off from the great reset for one second.
    You must understand these people will kill you before they will let you have your freedoms back to hold them accountable.
    Which is precisely why they are doing what they are doing and why the vaxx-concentration camps are being built.
    They had those in the pipeline from the very start, and if you think about that one fact alone, you know this is not going to end without a fight.
    You will not comply your way out of this, you’ll find the jabs don’t work (they’re not meant to) against the always and forever emerging new (yawn) deadly strains.

    In bird new this morning – the butcherbirds are running two nests complete with an unknown number of chicks. So, from a pair three years ago, we are now supporting a small empire.

    The oldest surviving chick from the first clutch is now indistinguishable from the parents, and appears to have picked up a mate. The second round of chicks (four) still have their adolescent plumage, but that will all change this coming year.

    If someone from China had a vaccine patent request in in February 2020, what had that got to do with the pfizer patent?

    There have been a number of mRna patents lodged over a period of several years in the course of development.

    There is no secret in this , it is public information and there are any number of articles available including on personalised mRna cancer vaccines that were published prior to 2020.

    But sure pfizer and moderna were working with the Chinese government, or something.

    Well egg_, I’ve had a look too. Lurked on the Dover Blog once I found it – there was another attempt which wanted me to sign in but that one was abandoned. I can only afford short bursts on social media because life, so not on the other platforms at all. Worked out how to get onto Discord from my laptop, but just don’t have the time.

    Fortunately, some of us don’t suffer from FOMO. 😀

    I have noticed some interesting differences. For a start, Dover’s site doesn’t appear to attract trolls, whereas this place oozes with them. We are so blessed.

    In all fairness, Australian cricket coach Justin Langer is both short and left-handed.

    But he was a tough little bastard when it counted. Brought in to replace the hand-patting style of Darren Lehmann, who like it or not allowed the monstrous cheating in South Africa several years ago to occur, Langer has apparently alienated some of the princesses in the serially-underperforming Australian team to the point where there are calls for his head.

    Langer’s former opening partner Matthew Hayden, quite rightly, believes this state of affairs to be a load of shit:

    Test great Matthew Hayden believes any Australian cricketer offended by Justin Langer’s intensity should be thankful they were not born 30 years earlier.

    “There is no more sure and centred leader than Justin and if his greatest crime is being intense then … go and deal with (former Australian coach) Bob Simpson and Allan Border,’’ said Hayden.

    Oh yes.

    “In 1989 Border created a new culture for Australian cricket by getting rid of some prima donnas who wanted to go this way that way and working hard. Justin can bring back that culture if he is listened to.

    “Bob and Allan decided in 1989 they were not going to pick talent but culture. It worries me we are heading back to the pre-1989 era.

    And:

    “No-one can speak about Justin like I can. I have seen him under the most extreme pressure and there is absolutely no-one you would prefer to have crossing the trenches with you.’’

    Hayden believes players should not be able to pick and choose which national tours they go on.

    “If you want to play for Australia you play for Australia. That is an absolute non-negotiable. You don’t cherry pick the calendar. You are available for every game.’

    That last bit is, of course, bang on. One of the most enjoyable cricketing moments in recent years was during a doco they made on the team, where porky training-averse batsman Usman Khawaja was complaining to Langer in front of the team that their net routine ‘wasn’t working for him’.

    Langer ferociously blistered him in public, mentioning on several occasions that the routine that worked for Khawaja in the nets was the same routine that had led to 20 consecutive batting collapses in Tests.

    Khawaja never mentioned it again, he was almost immediately removed from the team and everyone lived happily ever after.

    Langer needs to double down and accelerate. The abject failure of the chick hockey team in the Lympics is testament to what happens when hand-patting and pandering is chosen over results.

    Google mobility data compiled by The Age reveals that across the state last Friday and Saturday, people were moving more than at any time since mid-July last year when complacency prompted Premier Daniel Andrews to plunge the state into stage-four lockdown and mandatory mask-wearing.’

    KD = I’m not a great fan of Langer and think he is a bit of a weirdo but he’s an improvement on Boof who wanted to be their mate. Leadership is not easy, you need to ensure that people like whatever they earn doing, but only up to a point. I suspect there is a lot more to it. CA makes the CCP seem open and accountable.

    In the case of Delta, the mRNA antibodies that were targeted against Alpha are literally locking spike proteins into place ( as well as the virus sporting them) by also binding lipid cell structures adjacent to the spike protein binding sites (ACE2 receptors) on human cells.

    This might be a good place to link this presentation by Dr. Ryan Cole (which may have been linked before) actually showing the effect of the injected spike protein on organs.

    If you are asymptomatic and never get sick, who cares? I’m pretty sure the Diamond Princess people were looked at carefully and the CCP virus has run right through the US with <15% getting it. It never ever was going to be the problem it is made out to be. The vax, on the Gripping Hand, seems to be the bioweapon.
