Rewriting history

Normally I would suggest reading a book as opposed to judging it according to a review, but in this case I would have to admit that it’s probably not worth whatever the bookseller wants for it.

It’s one thing to claim that your pandemic strategies were undertaken with good intentions, but to not even acknowledge some obvious falsehoods that affected the decision making process takes dishonesty to a whole new level.

To recap, Deborah Birx—the woman who did more than almost any other person in the United States to promote and prolong COVID lockdowns, and attempted, with the support of mainstream media outlets, to silence anyone who disagreed with her—tells us in 2022 that she’d been inspired in her work by images that were widely known to have been faked (as if the real images of old age homes in Italy and elsewhere weren’t bad enough) before the lockdowns even started.

That’s Chapter 1.

She also admits that her guidance regarding the maximum allowable size of social gatherings—10 people—was arbitrary, because her real goal was zero—no social contact of any kind, anywhere…

Now Is The Time At SDA When We Juxtapose!

Hydro-Quebec press release, October 25, 2022;

“We are proud to contribute to the development of this network by hosting the first charging site for heavy and medium-duty vehicles. Ideally located near the municipal garage, it will allow us to accelerate our green shift started a few years ago for the eco-responsible management of our fleet of vehicles and motorized equipment.”

CTV News, April 9, 2023:

Hydro Quebec said that roughly 300,000 residents were still without power Saturday morning following Wednesday’s ice storm.[…] Some Pontiac residents are anticipating being in the dark for upwards of a week – the longest stretch without power since the ice storm of 1998. “We haven’t even seen a truck; we haven’t seen or heard of anything,” says Thompson “[Hydro Quebec] keeps telling us to be patient because there’s several thousand people without power.”

We Don’t Need No Flaming Sparky Bricks

You don’t have to be stupid to buy into the EV claims.

America is steadily switching to electricity for its driving fuel. But the early days of EV ownership are filled with bugs and small frustrations. Even the aspects of the experience that promise to be easy aren’t always easy at first.

When J.D. Power analysts studied the experience of using public EV chargers, they found drivers frustrated with defective chargers and balky payment apps. More than 20% of public charging attempts last year ended in failure, analysts found.

But that’s OK because public charging is rare, right? The promise of electric cars includes an easy, cheap refuel at home every night while you sleep.

That’s not working out well yet, either.

But it helps.

Y2Kyoto: Foul Ball

The dumbest thing you’ll read today.

In a paper published Friday in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, researchers from Dartmouth College find that rising global temperatures have led to an increase in home runs in Major League Baseball games — particularly those played in non-domed stadiums — due to reduced air density.

More than 500 MLB home runs since 2010 can be attributed to “historical warming,” the authors write. “Several hundred additional home runs per season are projected due to future warming.”

I hope to God this is a prank.

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal

Richard Nixon got a raw deal.

Although these authors disagree about many details, they agree that Nixon was removed from office not because he endangered the constitutional order, but because his bureaucratic and political enemies plotted successfully against him. And while scholars shy away from endorsing some of the more dramatic claims that have been made over the years, the best of them understand Watergate not in terms of the conventional narrative, but as an institutional “conflict” in which Nixon was the most important casualty. Nixon had to go—not because of a bungled break-in, but because he challenged the national-security state.

Collectivist thoughts

I’m frankly amazed that Tyson even agreed to be on Del’s show, but this is a revealing exchange nonetheless.

Tyson doesn’t seem to understand a very basic point: the purpose of the scientific method is not to “produce consensus” but rather to discover the truth.

Down The Primrose Path

Daily Mail;

A second batch of classified documents detailing the United States’ analyses of global hotspots has been leaked online in a suspected Russian plot.

More than 100 documents are feared to have been obtained in what a senior intelligence called ‘a nightmare for the Five Eyes,’ – a reference to the intelligence sharing agreement between the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

The documents cover the war in Ukraine, China, terrorism and the Middle East.

The Pentagon confirmed the leak, but said that some of the documents – as with the earlier reported leak – had been doctored to downplay the strength of U.S. allies.

The first tranche of documents appeared to have been posted in early March on the social media platform Discord, according to Aric Toler, an analyst at Bellingcat, the Dutch investigative site.

Friday’s documents were published on the controversial message board 4Chan, and subsequently spread on Twitter.

Oh dear. The earliest versions of the unedited leak I can find — on 4chan, of all places — also has an additional map of the situation in Bakhmut that isn’t in the copies being spread on Russian TG channels.The guy was posting these docs to win an argument against other anons on 4chan

Now Is The Time At SDA When We Juxtapose!

  • Just a few years ago: Leftist women had amped up the Me Too movement, telling all men, including little boys, what oppressive, horrible bastards they were.  The underlying narrative was clear: If a woman accused a man of anything, he WAS guilty.
  • Today: Leftist women are screaming that anyone who doesn’t actively support Trans people, in every way that they deem to be “required”, is a “transphobic bastard or bitch” and is entitled to a good beating or worse!

Today, in San Francisco, female swimmer Riley Gaines was physically attacked by a man in a dress.  It’s guaranteed that the ONLY thing the Woke Leftists will be concerned about is whether the attacker was misgendered.

What will it take for arrests of these vile Trans mobsters to begin?
