New Theories / Misinformation about COVID vaccines.

« on: 03/05/2021 01:22:17 »

Surely the best response is to simply make an inactived vaccine with all the current variants present? Might take a bit more time to inactivate the new strains and add them but surely is a better solution.

Vaccinating with just the spike protein was questionable but seems to have worked well.

Bret Weinstein was discussing a paper recently that was suggesting that the spike proteins were actually damaging the body. It was in his last dark horse podcast, I think the study was from Berkeley but dont quote me on I'm not 100%

Obviously the spike proteins are making healthy cells that are destroyed by the immune system, as are the healthy cells that are destroyed to make the proteins, but I believe the study was suggesting there was damage outside the expected range.

I would prefer to have an inactived or live attenuated jab for my secind shot. There are sensible reasons for this but of course this wasn't studied in the trials leading up to use authorisation, There is a trial of this https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2021-02-04-oxford-leads-first-trial-investigating-dosing-alternating-vaccines, most (all?) trials only enroll folk from proscribed areas so volunteering doesn't guarantee you get on the trial.

I'm still of the opinion that we should only be giving emergency authorisations to tried and tested technologies that have a big history of historical data, like inactivated vaccine do. To rush to give emergency authorisation to an experimental technology and have all 3 trails done in under a year I find extremely irresponsible, and unnecessary as we have inactivated vaccines that are working.

Guidance I heard from a person who worked for a pharmaceutical company was that people in low risk areas should take the vaccine that has the lowest rate of side effects, and that those in high risk areas should seek to take the vaccine that has the highest efficacy.

I'll add it is utterly disgusting that politicians in Europe are not allowing authorisation for the inactivated vaccines, they're literally playing politics, during a pandemic.

There are 0.6% trans people in America.

So does that mean the trans gender pay gap is something like for every dollar a cis women earns a trans women earns half a cent?

Apparently Bil Gates has now become the biggest owner of farm land world wide.

He has also taken complete control over the entire planets seeds

Surely there are anti trust laws that prevent this kind of behaviour?
According to some in 18 countries where gates has complete control over the food chain, starvation has been increasing.

That CAN'T be true! / America slave Labour camps. What should be done?

« on: 16/02/2021 21:17:37 »

There are currently over 2 million people in America slave Labour camp system.
https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/incarceration-rates-by-race-ethnicity-and-gender-in-the-u-s.html

Forced to work for the for profit prison system, while many having no pay for doing so:
https://www.newsweek.com/prison-slavery-who-benefits-cheap-inmate-labor-1093729

"Some prisoners in eight states—Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Texas—are not paid at all for their labor in government-run facilities. The national average for inmates receiving the least compensation for their maintenance work in these prisons is 14 cents per hour,"

The American constitution allows slavery for anyone who committed a crime in the 13th amendment.

Amendment XIII
Section 1.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime

So rather then the 13th amendment banning slavery actually the 13th amendment made slavery legal.

There are currently more people in Americas slave Labour camps, then Stalin's Russia managed, many of which are non violent offenders.

America the supposed land of freedom and its massive slave Labour industry.

Any suggestions for a solution?

New Theories / Rights of human Psyci-soveringity what should be included???

« on: 15/02/2021 04:12:23 »

Graham Handcock for a while now has been arguing for psyci-soverignity. Or sovereignty of consciousness.
https://mountainvision.blogspot.com/2012/11/graham-hancock-sovereignty-of.html?m=1

Drugging people is a crime under human rights law currently anyway. Not that any of the security services of the west in anyway respect the rule of law.

But aside from mankind having the right to not be secretly drugged by the security services as a means of social control. What else should be included in the sovereignty of consciousness package?

Obviously we are not fully aware of everything human kind is capable of but on discovering new abilities, capabilities, and capacities. What should mankind be given the right to be free from?

We are all under negative liberty and so, meant to be free from persecution.
But sadly as Julian Assange is a perfect testament, negative freedom is, it appears a simple lie and more about social control than it is about freedom from anything.

So what do you all think? what rights should be included in the soverignity of consciousness package?

That CAN'T be true! / Is Dr Fauci a complete joke?

« on: 13/02/2021 04:02:42 »

At the beginning of the pandemic Dr Fauci told people wearing masks was ineffective against Covid 19.
You can watch him lie through his teeth here:-

Fast forward a few months JUNE and Dr Fauci reverses his previous claims and says that masks actually do work. Fauci also clarified in a June interview that masks are helpful “
https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/dr-fauci-sets-the-record-straight-about-mas

And  now this.

First Dr Fauci says wearing more then one mask is effective.
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/01/25/anthony-fauci-it-just-makes-common-sense-that-two-masks-are-likely-more-effective/

Then a week later he says wearing more then one wont make any difference.
https://www.newswars.com/a-week-after-saying-wear-two-masks-fauci-says-it-wont-make-a-difference/

Less than one week after advising Americans that wearing two or even three masks would be ‘more effective’ against the spread of coronavirus, Dr Fauci has done a complete 180 (again) and admitted that there is no data to suggest it will make any difference


And now has returned to saying more then one Mask is effective.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-9193611/Wearing-three-layer-masks-blocks-90-infectious-particles-experts-say.html


The ever changing Dr Fauci. After repeatedly lying and changing his tune we should listen to him any longer? Or just give it 5 months after each statement to see if he is serious or not?

That CAN'T be true! / Final evidence of a rigged election in 2020?

« on: 07/02/2021 17:13:36 »

Share with you this time magazine article

https://time.com/5936036/secret-2020-election-campaign/

A quote from the article:-

"even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it."


This is not about voter fraud allegations.

Although this group confess to intentionally changing laws like act 77 in Pennsylvania which was changed the year before the election happened,  to allow mail in ballots, to remove requirements for signature verification,  and for ballots to be accepted days after the election had happened.

The same process was tried in Texas but failed in the courts. Pennsylvania officials tried to have these law changes over turned as they were unconstitutional,  yet were stuck down on technicalities not on merits.

So is this the final evidence of a conspiracy to fix the election?

The group involved claims they defended democracy, but that's the claim of the conspirators. Should we believe them? Trust them?

France and Canada have both outlawed mail in voting due to concerns with fraud.

Speaking of songs, Holst wrote music for Jupiter and Saturn.

Saturn the bringer of old age( which suppose is maturity or wisdom)

And Jupiter the bringing of jollity

« on: 05/02/2021 18:12:36 »

There have been numerous reports related to cases earlier then December of 2019 when China first identified the virus.

This cambridge study suggested Covid had been in China atleast since September 2019

Yet there is also evidence that covid was in Brazil in November 2019

France in November 2019

And spain as early as March 2019

So is Spain the most likely source as it is now the earliest sighting?

New Theories / Is Bilĺ Gates the problem more then the solution?

« on: 01/02/2021 14:31:59 »

So I was recently watching an interview with Owen Jones, there was a discussion about the Astro-zentica vaccine, originally the team at Oxford that were developing the vaccine wanted to leave the vaccine open source effectively copy left, so that any country could use the information and knowledge to produce the vaccine themselves.
Bill Gates and the Gates foundation moved in, and the vaccine is now patented and behind a pay wall.

Mr Gates has publicly before boosted that he has achieved a 20 to 1 return on investment in vaccines. Since his move into world health he has effectively doubled his net wealth.

So the question is given the original intention of the Oxford team was to produce a vaccine that was open source that any country could produce, and so would help vaccinate everyone during this pandemic. Surely the Gates foundation actions have literally put private ownership ahead of the well being of the entire planet.


India has apparently approached the WTO and asked that copy right be dropped for vaccine technology during the pandemic so that patient rights do not interfere with the vaccine roll out yet, western companies are along with western governments resisting the idea.

Surely this pandemic is one time, people like Bill Gates and the big pharma companies should be putting profit out of the equation?

New Theories / Could this be the answer to Gravity for space travel?

« on: 29/01/2021 13:57:25 »

A gravity wheel?

They can be made at any size, the issue is the decks that would be on the outside, imagine a car tyre where the decks are placed inside the inner tube and in opposition to the direction the wheel spins. 

All you need do is spin the wheel at 1G. And you would have a 1G gravity force on the decks inside.

You could also build deck inside the wheel where the spokes are they would also have a gravity feel but without the 1G as we have on earth.

Spinning the wheel at 1G would take some energy, but no where near as much as a 1G rocket would, as the wheel just spins on its axis.

Any thought?

The ship could be small, a deck being the size of a 5x5 room for example.

New Theories / What do you think of N-topia?

« on: 27/01/2021 23:42:28 »

What is a netural or natural topia?
Well first is is a Topia which sits in abalenced position within all the posible topias that there are. U- topia and dis topia are two extremes which have many varied forms, and types of expression. You for example can have a communist u-topia or a communist dis-topia, lets call them communism 1 and communism 2 you can also have dis and u topic socialism or capitalism, anarkism- even though all anakistic systems work to u-topia. 

So simply put an N- topic system would sit in the middle of all the possibles topias.   as below:   ..............

                                           
                   Communism1(Utopic) ..

.........Capitalism1(UTopic)...............
           ...............Socialism1(UTopic)

                                                               
Anarchy1(uT )  \ I /
                         N topia
                          / I \ anarchy2 (disT)
        Socialism2(disT)           
                              Capitalism2(disT) Communism2(DisT)

DisT - distopic
UT - utopic
You can add in all the systems possible- While this rather simply N-topic structure listed above it should hopefully give some indication as to how an N-topia would work.

Ofcourse you should have all the possible systems that there are included, as well as other systems that could be imagined.

Productionism, communitalism, chaosism, neo-communism, neo-fascism so on and so fourth. N-topia works by taking from each system the things which are useful and rejects the things which are not useful. By useful, I am referencing things which make society sustainable and beneficial for all members of it.

N-Topia seeks to become as sustainable as possible while giving all memebers of the society as much freedom as possible and as much life style choice as possible, in this sense if someone should want to live as a communist they could have a place provided for them with in the N-topic system. An N-topic country offers as much choice of life style to all the members as is sustainable and achieveable.

A U-topia is inherently good for some yet bad for others, which is why an N-topia seeks to offer all its members a place, rather than a one size fits all society; N-Topia seeks to give each person a place they feel more comfortable with. A multi-topic society- a netual or natural society. Of course I am still in the earily stages of writing N-topia, but I do believe that from this small post, most will glen some idea of what an N-topia would or could be like.

Related topics are Netural freedoms an extencion on Isaiah Berlins theory of negative freedom society, which I believe would not be suitable for an N-topic structure and would cause it to actually become unsustainable, which is why I propose a netural freedom society, to run in conjunction with the N-topia.

There are debates to have with regards to social structure and N-topia as satated above only deals with the societies foundation and not it's Heriarchical structure. However Following the N-Topic Theroy Power sturcture can be included in a similar form. Democracy, Monarchy, theocracy and so on. Powers asscribed and decided in socially agreed terms. To say in combining we can only combine that which has existed or can be imagined to exist, in a rational and reasonable way.

As such in N-topia it is important that the rule of law be placed over all the societies members and democracy be given to the people so that they have a voice interms of things they would like to see with-in the society,  have a say and the ablility to critic the leaders or even change them, should the leaders work against the interests of the people, society, and become unjust or acessivily selfish- for example.

This idea is as I said, a work in Progress yet I feel I have developed it surficently enought to post it. I ofcourse have not included with in this post, the living bio-logical part to the N-topic system; Which really relates to the notion that Society is a living Organism which under an N-topic system would evolve and adapt to include new systems and ideas as they emerge.   

So N- Topia:-  A Netural Freedom society. Where both negative and positive freedoms are allowed, with restrictions placed upon freedoms which are either, 1. unjust 2. could cause the society to become unsustainable.

In regards to no. 2 there are of course areas of serious debate, some freedoms if used by a majority of the populous could for example cause the society to become unsustainable, yet if a minimal amount of citizens acted in such a way, the society would not become unsustainable- Fines and licences would probably be the best course of action; To deal with such issues. Thus allowing a certain amount of the population to engage in an activity and fining others that do not follow a sustainable agreement- Fishing would be an example in this regard, unlicenced, fish could go extinct, with licences those that wish to fish would be allowed to do so in a controlled manner. 

Fine are placed upon those that act in unsustainable ways simply to prevent it's spread- should the fine be insufficient it would be increased until it is sufficient to limit the numbers to an amount that does not threaten the stability of the society.

All positive and negative freedoms in terms of thought would of course be allowed. And the rule of law used to prohibit actions and acts which were considered to be either in just or a possible causes of an unsustainable society.

Power structures Monarchy

I am a Royalist I will point out for a few reasons. 1 A king connot be just anyone, whereas a president can be. 2 a king or queen would provide a stabilizing element for the society. 3 As I also believe in democracy the king or queen as head of state would not rule as such, although I would increase the powers of a king or queen in certain areas of nation and public interest. I also believe that all people should be under the rule of law including the king or queen.  Which in of itself- calls for a "law President" who is responsible for the law in temporal terms- yet nothing else.

As such in Britain as an example you would have under this system I propose: King or Queen as head of state- A president in regards to the law- Then the houses of commons and Lord- responsible as they are today to create laws and also rule.

I would also include a  "Judge" this of course is a Jewish term for high priest. That postion would  be taken by the archbishop of canterbury, the religious authority of the land, still of course under the Queen yet with increased powers.

Point being that power sturctures can be combined following a N-topic style and seperation of powers and limitations of powers can be socially agreed upon, for all areas of the power structure.   

This would be a neturally free society, an N-topia pulling together all the different systems and working to make society as just and sustainable a place as humanly possible.

Free markets, sustainable quality markets foundation, multi markets,  Small business encouraged and big business dis-couraged- naturally would increase employment, and as all will be called to act as sustainable as possible also be highly enviromental.

An n-topic, netural freedom, communitalist, kingdom, With a quality Market, and representative parity Democracy. There should always more to add. 

But generally, N-topia moves into few areas Firstly are: Capitalism, Communism, socialism, feudalism so on. These are social ecconomic systems... Then you have power structures, like:- Monarchy, Theocracy, Democracy, Republic, Oligarchy. Ergo there is an N-topic ecconomic system and an N-topic Power structure.

But also society also has philosopical structures or better said a philosophy behind many of the structures and laws created, these can be lead by Egalitarianism, Liberialism, Progressivism, Conservativism.

N-topia again, would seek a balenced position a centerist position.

All this said N-topia is a rational system. It follows rational ideas and evidence of what can and does work, to achieve its ends of sustainablitiy, justice, and freedom.

The future is a fantasy until it arrives.

 Understanding that,  and reasonably moving forward, N-topia seeks a reasonable future, based on reasonable ideas. As such N-topia should workl to prevent any one social system or ideology taking over the whole system, and work to promote a more balenced society. 

 N-topia simply asks the question: what actually rationally works? And ignores the petty interests of rulers and groups. 

As a futher point an N-topic nation would learn from other nations, correct problems in their own nations as they saw them arise in others. A never ending experiment in a sense, where each society would learn from the others.

I post this here to give those interested in reading it an idea of what an N-topic system would look like and work to achieve.

Any suggestions? Or ideas? Critics?
