In mid-November 2020, Anthony Fauci took time from his busy media schedule to speak (gasp — maskless!) at Washington National Cathedral to lecture us about covid and the public’s failure to follow his master plan of lockdowns until a vaccine was available. The Science was clear, Fauci and the ‘experts’ declared. Just weeks after saying vaccines wouldn’t be available before the end of 2020, Fauci and the media had already latched on to the jabs as the way to get through the pandemic.
Here’s a fun little trip down memory lane: while researching the specifics of the video from Fauci’s speech, I found this CNBC article claiming the Pfizer vaccine was 90% effective. What did they mean by 90% effective? A clue is in the URL of the linked citation article — https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/09/covid-vaccine-pfizer-drug-is-more-than-90percent-effective-in-preventing-infection.html
Remember, back in 2020 the pitch for the jab was that it PREVENTED INFECTION, no matter how much the ‘experts’ and presstitutes now want to claim the shots were only to prevent serious illness. The citation article itself makes the claim that the vaccines prevent infection:
That’s what we all expected the vaccines to do in 2020. That’s why the ‘experts’ had to change the definition of vaccine in 2021. Don’t let them convince you otherwise.
Getting back to the point of the article, during Fauci’s remarks he declared that while Americans have an independent spirit, “now is the time to do what you’re told.” (If you’re impatient, you can skip to :36 to hear him say it.)
It’s easy to see why Fauci was being such a scold. He had spent all summer taking credit for reduced virus levels in the United States, and the winter wave was beginning to crash over the entire country — exactly as the ‘seasonality theorists’ predicted it would.
Here’s the state of our favorite hospitalization chart on October 20, 2020. Here, the southern summer wave is over and the virus is just starting to show itself in the very cold northern states. (Once again, exactly as predicted by the seasonality theorists.) This put Fauci in a difficult spot because the virus had receded on its own in the “anti-science” Southern states that had already opened. (Notably, Florida is “white”, the lowest level of hospitalizations.)
Now just under a month later (November 17), virus activity had kicked up across the entire country, regardless of a state’s specific covid rules (once again, exactly as predicted by the seasonality theorists):
This was the backdrop of Fauci’s speech. The virus was picking up steam all across the country, even though much of the nation was still in ‘lockdown’ status. Data was also pouring in showing that states with numerous covid rules had similar outcomes to their more-free neighbors:
Can you tell which state had the most restrictive coronavirus restrictions? Me neither — and we never could. But Fauci and the rest of the clown cabal wanted to pretend that RULES were the difference in outcome. As if something like this was saving us from covid:
“Do as you’re told” Fauci said. And what did the leaders tell us to do? Anything and everything they could think of. They closed your business and said you couldn’t visit your relatives in the hospital. They said you couldn’t go to work without an experimental vaccine — and you couldn’t even sue if you were injured by it. They shut down schools and put the population into masks. They declared how many guests you could have over and how close you could be to them. They even determined how you had to “enjoy” your Thanksgiving holiday!
I love this picture because it brings up SO MANY WONDERFUL QUESTIONS!
What counts as “briefly” and who times my guests in the bathroom?
What counts as “frequently sanitized” and who determines if I pass?
If we determine the bathroom is NOT “frequently sanitized”, then what? Is pooping on the street preferred? (This is California, after all.)
There’s literally no end to the rules the ‘experts’ will make in the name of The Science in order to control your behavior. But the ‘leaders’ never took the rules seriously to begin with. When the cameras are off, so are the masks. When the cameras are on, the masks go on:
If you’re really high up the food chain, you don’t even have to put on the mask even when the cameras are rolling:
Similar examples could stretch on for days. The people who made the rules didn’t feel like they should follow them — likely because they knew those rules weren’t making a difference anyway. But if the little people were in violation……..
So while there’s no police available to respond to your car being stolen or to stop downtown from burning, there’s always a dozen officers ready to respond to a guy alone without a mask. And because government only has one tool — the giant sledgehammer of force — sometimes that means these encounters turn fatal.
This is why we shouldn’t create these types of rules lightly. Ultimately, all laws (and regulations and executive orders) are enforced at gunpoint. To add insult to injury, this is the guy making rules about “protecting your health”:
The covid years were a perfect sneak-peek into the centrally planned world the Mitch McConnells of the world want to trap us into. You’ll wear the masks when the leaders deem it time. You’ll get the proper shots when the leaders deem it time. You’ll eat the bugs when the leaders deem it time.
And now they’re ramping the fear back up, just in time for a new mix of jab juice and the 2024 election. The mask mandates are starting to return, football games are getting canceled, and SOMEBODY is paying to re-activate the covid hospitalization page. All this points to the same thing — they’re gonna try to run the whole thing back, this time with EVEN STUPIDER rules:
The policy change was announced internally by Sommer McElroy, Response Manager for Lionsgate/Starz, in an email, a copy of which was obtained by Deadline. Implemented in response to several employees recently testing positive for Covid, it involves a mandatory mask mandate effective immediately and until further notice for the 3rd and 5th floors of the five-story building, the email said.
This is so dumb I’m having a hard time even mocking it — whatever I come up with pales in comparison to just reading this passage again:
“it involves a mandatory mask mandate effective immediately and until further notice for the 3rd and 5th floors of the five-story building”
Lionsgate was roundly mocked for this move — deservedly so — and four days later ended the mandate by declaring victory over the virus:
This is the power of public backlash. The first go-around with dumb covid rules, too many people meekly went along with the scam, and a large portion of people who resisted did so quietly by staying home.
Now is the time to get loud and tell the ‘leaders’ to shove their arbitrary and convoluted rules that don’t make a bit of difference in the first place. No to mask mandates. No to mandated testing. No to booster jabs that were authorized without long-term safety data. And most of all, no the idea that the ‘leaders’ have the power to do any of those things in the first place.
Want an idea of how to pull this off? Take a page from the book of 12-year-old Jaiden, who was recently kicked out of school for wearing a Gadsden flag patch on his backpack:
Calm, cool, collected, and ultimately confident that he’s correct. And when the public backlash to the video washed over the school, the school was forced to relent.
This is the power of NO. And now is the time to get used to saying it, before we’re once again knee-deep in “for your own good” covid or climate restrictions that don’t seem to apply to the elites.

“What did they mean by 90% effective?”
Not to mention the statistical sleight-of-hand that is commonly used in clinical trials to make an almost insignificant effect seem astronomical. Relative risk!
Re the stupid "guidelines" for the 3rd and 5th floors at Lionsgate, my former company whose office building was within the confines of the City of Boston, complied with such directives from the City. For example, walking only counterclockwise on each floor; no mask at your desk, but masks while away; two people at a time in the elevators each with their backs to each other facing the opposing corner with their feet on painted-on white shoes; standing outside in line waiting to be called into the lobby to swipe IDs and then wait in between stanchions in the elevator lobby to be directed two at a time into one of the three elevators.
Can you imagine? Grown, "sophisticated" adults allowed themselves these deep indignities and humiliations? Because? Respiratory infection. Because? Somebody told them to.
I? #NeverHaveNeverWill.
