The recent stimulus induced inflationary spike is real-world proof that any form of UBI would be a disaster.

Posted on May 20, 2021 by James T

Well, that didn’t take long. Just months after the latest of round of stimulus checks went out, inflation has spiked to the highest levels seen in decades. You don’t need to be an economist or someone who follows the financial news to be aware of it. Every consumer has noticed their food prices going up on an almost weekly basis and the increases show no signs of slowing down. Of course, all of this shouldn’t…

Elon Musk’s hypocrisy. Electric powered cars are good for the environment but electric powered Bitcoin is bad?

Posted on May 13, 2021May 13, 2021 by James T

Elon Musk stunned the world again today, but not by delivering on any of the new products he perpetually promises but never actually come to market. Instead, it was by completely reversing his recent decisions to accept Bitcoin as a payment option for Tesla cars. In a Tweet, Musk cited environmental concerns as the reason for his change of heart. Tesla & Bitcoin pic.twitter.com/YSswJmVZhP — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 12, 2021 Of course, cryptos dropped…

The same doctors and pharmaceutical industry that got Americans hooked on painkillers have assured us their vaccine is now safe.

Posted on April 22, 2021 by James T

You don’t have to go that far back in history to see an example where the pharmaceutical industry yanks the leash of doctors in order to promote profits above public safety. The opioid crisis in America which takes nearly 70K lives a year, is a perfect example of how doctors and the pharmaceutical industry promote totally unsafe medications without blinking an eye. All the while assuring the public that they’re totally safe. When it comes…

The media dismisses vaccine deaths as “one in a million”, but those same odds for a young, healthy person dying from covid are labeld as “covid denial”.

Posted on April 15, 2021April 15, 2021 by James T

With news of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine being halted in the U.S. after fatal side effects have been observed, it is showing yet another double standard in the way the media portrays the dangers of covid. As I wrote about here, a bombshell report by the Telegraph shows that governments have intentionally used psychological tactics to report covid-19 facts in a way that maximizes fear. Now it seems those same health officials are doing…

The total number of Americans who choose to be vaccinated will stall around 30%. That’s when officials will start pushing for passports and mandatory vaccination.

Posted on April 15, 2021April 15, 2021 by James T

As various covid-19 vaccines become widely available all across America, we are about to see a sharp decline in the number of people choosing to get vaccinated. This will happen for several reasons. First, most of the people most eager to get the vaccine have most likely done so already. So in essence, everyone who desperately wants a vaccine can get one relatively easily. The long lines and lack of appointments have faded and most…

Scientists accuse UK government of using covert psychological strategies to increase covid-19 fear and drive compliance with lockdowns.

Posted on April 12, 2021April 12, 2021 by James T

In a bombshell report written by Gordon Rayner and published by The Telegraph, several psychologists have filed a formal complaint with the UK government over what they call “covert psychological tactics” used to increase fear among the British public. Many of these accusations are based on a piece of evidence from the very beginning of the pandemic in March of 2020. In a document prepared for the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) in March,…

Mandatory vaccines for a relatively mild virus will result in more deadly dominant strains. Similar to how the overuse of antibiotics can create “superbug” bacteria.

Posted on April 1, 2021May 20, 2021 by James T

As we inch closer to mandatory worldwide vaccinations against covid-19, there is something that almost nobody is talking about. A virus is a living thing, and like all viruses they adapt depending on their environment. We all are aware of this, it happens with cold and flu viruses, and it also happens with dangerous bacteria. However, most mild viruses don’t generally mutate into more deadly strains because it is of no benefit to the longevity…

NBC is carefully going over 17,000 hours of WWE footage to remove any hint of racism before streaming.

Posted on March 27, 2021 by James T

NBC Universal recently acquired the rights to stream the decades-long catalog from the popular wrestling network WWE. That story in itself wouldn’t be much of a news story. However, being 2021 and the fact that every media company is obsessed with race, there is another angle. To make sure not one second of possibly offensive content hits their streaming service, NBC has chosen to carefully review all 17,000 hours of footage to look for possible…

The phrase “trust the science” is one of the most unscientific things you can say. Science is based on skepticism and rigorous testing and retesting. Not “trust”.

Posted on March 20, 2021March 22, 2021 by James T

There is a phrase I’m sure you have heard over and over again the past year. Whether it was regarding mask usage, the importance of lockdowns, or now with the vaccine, the phrase you can’t escape is “trust the science”. This phrase is spewed constantly in the mainstream media, from so-called experts and all over social media. The purpose of course is to allay people’s fears that these new and unproven theories are in fact,…

Biden could have easily held a softball press conference early after taking office. The fact that he didn’t suggests he will step down before the year is out.

Posted on March 16, 2021 by James T

While this isn’t really a new take on things, it’s looking more and more likely that Joe Biden will not last until the end of the year. Very early on people speculated that Biden was simply a placeholder for Kamala Harris. I was one of the earliest to suggest Harris was the establishment’s preferred candidate, and I did so before Biden even won the nomination in 2020 and Harris was polling at less than 2%….
