Our Descent Into Collective
Madness

Original Article

Posted By: mc squared, 2/18/2021 10:50:50 AM

These are crazy times. A pandemic led to national quarantine; to self-induced recession; to riot, arson, and looting; to a contested election; and to a riot at the U.S. Capitol. In response, are we focusing solely on upping the daily vaccination rate? Getting the country back to work? Opening the schools as the virus attenuates? Ensuring safety in the streets? Or are we descending into a sort of madness? It might have been understandable that trillions of dollars had to be borrowed to keep a suffocating economy breathing. But it makes little sense to keep borrowing $2 trillion a year to prime an economy now set to roar back

The nation must be opened up to survive. Collateral damage has to be absorbed to save the Country. Some may die from Covid that bad. But how many kids are going without education, How many people are out of work, How many business's are closing. How long can we go on adding trillions of wasted money to the Federal debt? Open up. This Covid got us Biden, It can't get much worse than that.

As I understand this bill, $350 billion will go to people who need it. The remaining $1.650 trillion will go to bailout spendthrift blue state governments and mandate economically distinctive laws. I can hear the blue state governors now saying, “Whoopee, more free money I can spend to buy re-election!”

FTA: "The common denominator with all these absurdities? An ungracious and neurotic elite whose judgment is bankrupt and whose privilege is paid for by those who don’t have it." Perhaps the French got it right in their revolution when the sent all of their royals to lose their heads. They certainly got it very violently wrong for about a decade from about 1789 to 1799, but getting rid of "their betters" wasn't a bad thing. That mess took a long time to sort out. These wealthy tech hotshots who imagine that they are very smart, and very important had better have a good grasp of history. Sometimes 'the peasants' have had about enough.

Dr. Hanson wrote this article as if none of the absurdities he described were designed to cause suffering and failure. I believe that they are deliberate and the goal is to oversee the disappearance of a sizable portion of the population of the world through attrition, execution or slavery. It sounded far-fetched when Orwell wrote about it but so much has changed: the unchecked migration of hundreds of millions of the needy, poor and uneducated to the West; the attack on reliable sources of energy; the total supervision and control of habits, knowledge, speech and travel; the introduction of the idea of plant and insect-based diets; the emphasis on homosexuality and transsexualism (neutering); cancel culture, doxxing and public humiliation for holding traditional values would have been unthinkable on 9/11 but they are either part of our daily lives today or ascendant. We know this is all imposed on us by an elite, humanist and very powerful group, we watch it being imposed but we are rendered powerless to stop it. There is, however, a Power that can and will stop it and I am so glad to know that.

#5, that's a good point. There is a substantial leftist class that see's human beings as a plague on the 'perfect Earth', and wants most humans dead. They would not lose one moment's sleep over killing 3 or 5 billion humans, not at all. Truly evil, evil people on a scale that overtops any of the old mass murderers by large amounts. They would love to be just like Pol Pot, or Mao, or Stalin, or Hitler as far as wiping out billions of people. Hating humans is a particularly evil view.

If one were to go to Washington D.C. today and walk around the Capitol Building, to the extent that you can even get close to it these days, you’d be mistaken for thinking you were in a third-world country. The current fortifications and military presence feel much more apt for an embassy in Baghdad than they do for the center of the U.S. government. We are now over two months out since the January 6th riot, where the most recent information shows that not a single person was killed with malice or intent except for a woman shot by police.

The United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA), the largest local teachers’ union in California, rejected Governor Gavin Newsom’s school reopening plan on Monday, calling it “”a recipe for propagating structural racism.” The plan, which was announced by Newsom and Democratic leaders in the state legislature, provides $6.6 billion for schools to accelerate the reopening process as coronavirus cases drop. “$2 billion would fund safety measures to support in-person instruction, such as personal protective equipment, ventilation upgrades and COVID-19 testing. $4.6 billion would fund expanded learning opportunities, such as summer school, tutoring and mental health services,” the governor’s office said in a press release.

Nearly half of the wind turbines in the state of Texas froze in recent winter weather, hurting state power supplies, according to state authorities. The Austin American-Statesman reported Sunday: Nearly half of Texas’ installed wind power generation capacity has been offline because of frozen wind turbines in West Texas, according to Texas grid operators. Wind farms across the state generate up to a combined 25,100 megawatts of energy. But unusually moist winter conditions in West Texas brought on by the weekend’s freezing rain and historically low temperatures have iced many of those wind turbines to a halt.

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
