Canadian 'media'. Your efforts aren't in vain.

Don't expect too much. Established media names and other personalities masking as self-described 'disinformation experts' remain fully entrenched and in a trance if not coma about the whole COVID era moral panic.

I check them out on Twitter to get a vibe and sense if any of the disastrous collateral damage inflicted through unethical and unscientific restrictions by way of our credentialed classes is shifting.

It's not. Just read Coyne, Picard, Caulfield, Derfel, Pelley etc. They're sticking to the script and probably applaud the whole top-down 'One Health' approach (read: medial authoritarianism) approach. Sweden was wrong! Canada was right! Next time we just need to go deeper, harder and with extra assaults on civil liberties. Win!

Worse. The regime they represent on this issue is rewarding them. Two (Picard and Caulfield) of those mentioned have been awarded the Order of Canada (a Cracker Jack prize it appears) and one (Pelley) won some digital media prize. 'Thanks for not asking too many questions and turning those who did into crackpots. Here's your Scooby snack'.

Never was a fan of awards.

I mention this because their work helped lay the atmosphere that led to the Trucker's Rebellion and all the ugly stuff that followed it kicked off by the EA.

It was one-side 'journalism' that kept a population in fear - not informed but in fear and prepped to follow orders - that frayed the civil order.

And they got to do so by simply ignoring opposite valid views, and dehumanizing and demonizing those who didn't accept their diktats. For people who claim to 'follow science' they promulgated pure junk science with masking and social distancing while vastly over rating the vaccines.

For crying out loud, two of the big names - Collins and Redfield - flatly admitted it was a myopic approach leading to accepting such idiotic measures that came out of nowhere. Birx and Fauci are still out there flip flopping around trying to find their little space like weasels to try and save face also all but conceded it was bull shit. Read Atlas's book to get a sense of how Birx was more dimwit than intelligent.

At least four of the biggest faces of the response have some level of awareness - and maybe a conscience (Collins and Redfield specially. The other two are text book sociopaths if not worse) - to concede errors were made.

Name me one Canadian 'expert' that's done that. Tam on down. It's still a COVID gulag.

And they're gonna try and repeat the same game plan with this bird flu to attempt to induce another moral panic.

In any event, I'm not so sure Collins/Fauci were necessarily acting on their own. Recall, the Pentagon all but took over NIAID after 9/11 and shifted Fauci's mandate to bio-warfare. They just didn't;t bother to change the name of NIAID. Ergo, it's not a stretch to think the whole COVID debacle was planned and coordinated from the DoD and some adjacent and not so-adjacent partners from Johns Hopkins to the CIA.

Like that's never happened before in history. Nope. No siree. Nothing to see here.

I guess it all comes down to how one frames this. For example, ome people can't conceive of their own government doing bad things. Others can. And they begin to rationalize from that point on.

Again. Great job, Gord and forgive my rant.
