In the past two years - it's difficult, looking back, to pinpoint the exact moment it became obvious – the corporate media has behaved as though it exists in a parallel universe. I have found it increasingly difficult to work out who it is actually for. Some of that must be partly due to my own journey away from the consensus view on pretty much anything of import, not that I have been in thrall to the mainstream for decades, now. Nonetheless, the purveyors of the narrative have fundamentally changed the way they go about their business even if, as now seems obvious, at least some things must always have been the way that they currently are.
The temptation to play God, to manipulate information that only they were in possession of, must have been an ever present danger all along. Certainly, what didn't make it into the news may have been as important as what did. The ability to bury a story that didn't fit a narrative is as valuable as the ability to spin one into something that did.
It used to be the case that, while editorial policy often dictated what slant a story was given, the media did not suffer from a reputation for outright falsehoods. Omitting salient facts in order to service a treasured belief system, yes. Making stuff up out of whole cloth, not so much. That has all changed now; or, perhaps, it was never quite as we thought, but we just realize it now. But my impression is that, whatever massaging of the truth was previously attempted, we are witnessing a whole different level now.
The media coverage of the Covid saga has been absolutely reprehensible. At no point in the past two years have the media told the truth. I'm not just criticizing a misguided impulse to propagate some noble lie about the efficacy of 'vaccines'. They have lied about everything and, for the most part, they still are and all of it has been in service of whatever it is that the state has decreed. It's been impossible to see the join between the Fourth Estate and government.
However, it's my contention that, with the exception of those people who joined the Covidian Cult early on and who don't want to leave it, most people can now see through at least some of the bullshit. I would estimate that the zealots comprise perhaps 25-30% of the whole, but no more and probably less. These are the people who de-tuned their critical faculties when the first wave of fear and paranoia hit them, so any slow realization that the news is increasingly mismatched with the reality around them will not find traction in the way that it has with the majority of those initially deceived because they still retained a residual faith in the likes of the BBC or CNN.
It has become increasingly clear that all news is filtered through ideology now, not just partisan preferences, and the narrative hoovers up every cultural topic; nothing can remain unmolested, because every aspect of society must be controlled. This is a necessary adjunct of any ideology for two primary reasons. Firstly, it suits the personality type of those that seek to control us and, secondly, because any deviation from the collective 'truth' undermines it and has the potential to attract dissident adherents and that cannot be allowed.
And so, education, the law, the family, the economy, religion, sport, genders and race are all aspects of society and culture that must be subjugated to the narrative and controlled. The media, both corporate and social, are the enforcers of the orthodoxy and the peddlers of the version of reality that they themselves create – a version that is not true and which is, inevitably, vulnerable to collapse if placed under any kind of sustained scrutiny.
If one is of a more conservative persuasion, it is strangely dislocating to find that vast swathes of what we can broadly define as societal norms (as dictated by the various forms of media) are now completely at odds with traditional beliefs. It frequently feels isolating and depressing, which is the idea. Isolating because open opposition to the new orthodoxy exacts a heavy price and depressing because there is no current way that the tide can be turned.
It's also certainly the case that in the age of the internet we, the general public, have potential access to far more information than we ever did before. This could (and should) result in us acquiring a more accurate impression of the world around us and to some degree, it has. It's just that, increasingly, one has to go to considerable lengths to discover it, because the system is clearly not invested in the idea that knowledge should be decentralized. So, instead of a situation where we empower ourselves through the acquisition of truths, we find that the road most travelled is littered with media sources that lie to us and then label anybody that disagrees with them a conspiracy theorist or misinformation artist.
Even 'experts' can no longer be trusted. This has been the case for decades in some fields (such as climate science), but the cancer has now metastasized across many other disciplines, particularly medicine. The phrase 'peer reviewed' used to mean something and I'm sure it still does in some corners of academia, but its cachet has been eroded by a combination of filthy lucre and ideology. Once again, for those of us that have discovered this parlous state of affairs, this is the aim of the enemy – when even the experts can no longer be relied on, knowledge and truth can be nullified and portrayed as relative concepts, rather than absolutes. This suits those that seek to hoodwink us just fine. Of course, the cohort that hasn't realized that anything is amiss in the first place will still blindly believe anyone in a lab coat, anyway.
And so, to those of us who have waded through the obfuscations and the corrupted science, the mainstream version of reality seems grotesquely malformed and pitched at the level of the educationally sub optimal; which brings me full circle. Who is it for?Are Big Media hermetically sealed in their echo chamber? Do they (at least partly) believe the guff that they inflict on the rest of us? Or, as seems more likely, is there a cynical desire to manipulate us in ways that their paymasters deem essential?
Could it be that by dumbing down their content, serving the propaganda machine with endless repetitions of the same asinine talking points, they are also underestimating the intellect of the target audience? It must be possible to become untethered from real life when their class experience so little of it for themselves, but I sincerely hope that the general population is a little smarter than the media thinks. It would be staggering if we have reached the two year mark with the narrative junkies in an overall majority.
As well as the constant reiteration of the party line, the media has overwhelmed us with the sheer volume of revelation. No sooner did we have the virus than we had all the various countermeasures, treatments, hospital protocols, surges, 'cases', clinical trials of 'vaccines' and then the growing realization that all is not as it seemed, passports, mandates...the list goes on. The lies about every single aspect of the 'pandemic' have been too numerous to count and too frequent to effectively denounce in real time. When one lie follows hard on the heels of others, it is very difficult to gain lasting traction on any one aspect of the malfeasance before the next untruth overtakes us. The mere act of switching focus onto the latest depredation has been interpreted as tacit acceptance of everything that has gone before. Thus, the sheer volume of bullshit serves to validate, rather than disqualify.
The lesson seems to be that unless the battle is fought and won before the heat leaves the initial argument, it will be deemed to have been lost. It has nothing to do with the facts as they are and everything to do with the desire of the dominant class to move past uncomfortable truths as swiftly and comprehensively as possible. Anybody that attempts to revisit any issue that has been dismissed in this fashion is ignored or maligned and assailed with rhetoric that insists that the discussion is settled.
However, things that were lies then are still lies now. The passage of time doesn't scour the truth away and fighting on the latest turf is often what the enemy wants us to do. So, let's revisit some facts.
It is a racing certainty that SARS COV 2, the formulation that gives rise to Covid, was created in a lab funded, at least in part, by Fauci and the National Institute of Health (NIH).
How do we know that Covid exists? Because the Chinese told us and then the likes of the CDC, and the WHO confirmed it. That's how precarious the entire premise is.
The WHO changed the definition of pandemic to include non-lethal diseases.
The 'vaccine', to a disease that was allegedly novel prior to the end of 2019, had already been patented by Moderna prior to the 'pandemic'.
The PCR test is wholly unreliable, not only in detecting the correct pathogen but also in determining whether it is live (and capable of causing disease) or dead and therefore harmless. It is a secondary diagnostic tool, not a primary one.
The 'vaccine' is not a vaccine. Vaccines prevent infection and transmission; these treatments do neither. mRNA technology is historically identified as experimental gene therapy.
Because they are not a vaccine, they are not eligible for an Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA), which was nonetheless granted. The EUA is illegal for this reason.
An EUA cannot be granted to a 'vaccine' if there are other effective treatments available. The rationale, sensibly, is that the risk is not justified as the EAU can only apply to a drug that has not received full approval.
Hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, azithromycin, vitamin D, zinc and others besides are effective early treatments for Covid. Ivermectin is effective at any stage of the disease. The 'vaccines' are therefore disqualified from Emergency Use on these grounds also.
Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin were the prescription drugs of choice in the early stages of 2020. This is because they were known to be effective against SARS and they were fully approved drugs, able to be used for off label treatment.
The FDA and other regulatory bodies around the world retrofitted EUAs to Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. There is no regulatory pathway for these actions. A drug that is approved has never been then downgraded for a specific off label treatment.
Regulatory bodies, supervised by the WHO, ran two large trials (Recovery and Solidarity) which overdosed patients with lethal levels of hydroxychloroquine. Scores of patients died. The EUA for hydroxychloroquine was withdrawn.
A regulatory body, by definition, has responsibility for policing the regulations. When it goes beyond those regulations, without authority, it loses its legitimacy and should be ignored.
There is no scientific evidence for the efficacy of masking.
There is no scientific evidence for the efficacy of lock-downs and plenty of evidence against them, not least the absolute certainty of collateral damage. It would be wrong to use the term 'unintended consequences' instead. When isolation is imposed upon a population who are also denied ongoing hospital treatments for existing medical conditions (such as cancer), the consequences can be easily foreseen and are not, therefore, unintended.
There is no such widespread phenomenon as asymptomatic spread. There never has been.
Over the past two years, the number of global deaths have been exactly in line with the average for the years preceding. What there have been are peaks where the old and the vulnerable have been ill with a respiratory disease of some kind. These peaks have then been prolonged by the lack of early outpatient treatment and lethal inpatient treatment.
Excess deaths are now skyrocketing. These deaths are not from Covid. They are from heart disease, strokes, cancers and auto-immune diseases.
The overwhelming majority of Covid hospitalisations and deaths are 'vaccinated'. The injections do not, therefore, prevent hospitalisations and deaths, as claimed.
'Vaccine' passports are a complete waste of time, if the purpose of them is as stated. If 'vaccinated' and 'unvaccinated' alike can spread Covid, possession of a passport means nothing.
According to the authorities, there was no flu season in 2020 and 2021. The same authorities, in the US, have withdrawn the EUA for the PCR test because it couldn't tell the difference between Covid and flu.
The authorities told us that the 'vaccines' don't alter human DNA. They do.
The full list of 'vaccine' ingredients and possible side effects has never been made public. This practice is explicitly forbidden by international treaty and human rights law. There is no exemption for emergency use. Governments are therefore in breach of both treaty commitments and the law.
All of these facts have been bypassed; none of them has been refuted. There is one further item of note. Long term immunity after infection is a genuine phenomenon and not a recent discovery. It was known at the outset because it was then that tests were done on some of the people who had been infected with the original SARS in 2002 and it was found that they also had immunity to SARS COV 2. These two diseases only share around 80% of the same genome. However, the variants of the Wuhan strain of the disease are less than 1% different in make-up to the original, so if a 20% variation in identity doesn't nullify immunity, a 1% difference isn't going to either.
Additionally, it was known at the outset that a large percentage of the population is naturally immune to SARS COV 2. This is because the disease is not a 'novel' coronavirus. It follows that, two years in, the number of 'unvaccinated' people who have yet to be infected by the highly transmissable strains that have predominated latterly must be vanishingly small, if not effectively zero.
But, according to the media, we are still seeing Covid surges which is something that I expect them to be saying for the foreseeable future, because what we have is a perfectly engineered storm. The 'vaccinated' will continue to get the latest sniffle, ad infinitum, and whatever test that is used into the future can be programmed to give whatever results are desired. Et voilà. The lack of 'unvaccinated' victims can be overcome and, instead, there is a permanent 'pandemic' that can be dialed up or down as required.
This is where we are, with a media that amplifies a version of events that has never been true and which isn't even within hailing distance of it but they still expect to dictate the narrative, regardless. It is clear that journalists have become activists, who prioritize ideology over reporting. It's also clear that there are bad actors pulling the strings, behind the scenes. This can be divined from the frequency with which multiple media sources will broadcast the same talking points simultaneously, often using the same exact phrases.
And the reason as to why it is challenging to discern any divergence between state interests and media talking points? The people funding the media have interests that are being enabled by their indentured servants in government.
It's possible that Big Media will become less and less relevant and they depart ever further from the reality of the world around us. This seems to be happening already if we are to believe the viewing numbers. But this doesn't mean that they will necessarily be stripped of influence. They will continue to be the mouthpiece of the state and the state has made clear its determination to rigidly enforce its own highly partisan definition of what passes for 'misinformation'. Big Media will continue to be in the vanguard of that effort.
I think that, no matter how unpopular they become, no matter how much money they hemorrhage, they will still be there. Regimes always have propaganda outlets, after all. However, if their ratings tank further, it will at least demonstrate that the ordinary public can see them for what they are. In the end, what used to be the mainstream media will cater only to the regime zealots. That process is already well underway.
The PTB have been planning this moment for decades --- from the Covid virus to the 'vaccines' to the PR machine that is now being deployed intensively to push uptake. I would also suggest the education system has been primed for many years to pump out compliant zombies who would do as they are told - when the time comes.
Why is it reaching a crescendo now? It is because we are on the brink of total collapse and if they fail 8B humans will be on the streets - in the dark - without food. Do I need to describe what happens then....
They will do anything - and I mean ANYTHING to ensure nothing threatens the execution of The Plan. We've seen states like Australia and Canada - once liberal bastions - go full totalitarian. Something obviously is up....
I have no doubt if the protesters turned to violence they would be treated like terrorists. As in shot dead. Failure ... is NOT an option.
ULTIMATE EXTINCTION PLAN (UEP)
1. Every country on the planet is on board with the Injections. Even Sweden. When have all countries aligned on any issue? Never.
2. Not a single MSM outlet is interviewing any of the expert dissenters – Yeadon, Bridle, Montagnier, Bossche etc… and the mainstream social media platforms are blocking them.

Conventional Oil peaked in 2005 http://www.euanmearns.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/C-Cdec141.png
Shale in 2018.
According to Rystad, the current resource replacement ratio for conventional resources is only 16 percent. Only 1 barrel out of every 6 consumed is being replaced with new resources

Shale binge has spoiled US reserves, top investor warns Financial Times.
Preface. Conventional crude oil production may have already peaked in 2008 at 69.5 million barrels per day (mb/d) according to Europe’s International Energy Agency (IEA 2018 p45). The U.S. Energy Information Agency shows global peak crude oil production at a later date in 2018 at 82.9 mb/d (EIA 2020) because they included tight oil, oil sands, and deep-sea oil. Though it will take several years of lower oil production to be sure the peak occurred. Regardless, world production has been on a plateau since 2005.
What’s saved the world from oil decline was unconventional tight “fracked” oil, which accounted for 63% of total U.S. crude oil production in 2019 and 83% of global oil growth from 2009 to 2019. So it’s a big deal if we’ve reached the peak of fracked oil, because that is also the peak of both conventional and unconventional oil and the decline of all oil in the future.

Oil Gluts – do NOT indicate we have found more oil. We just pumped what’s left too fast.
Summary In 2019 a second Perfect Storm was approaching – the central banks had been doing ‘whatever it takes’ for over a decade…. Essentially nothing was off the table --- throw the kitchen sink at pushing GFC2.0 into the future. In 2019 the guns were blazing but the beast was no longer held at bay…
What do you do when you are burning far more oil than you discover --- and your efforts to offset the impact of expensive to produce oil push you to the edge of the cliff? You can accept your fate and allow the beast to shove you into the abyss…. Or you can take the ‘nuclear option’ and shut down as much of the economy as possible, preserve remaining oil and pump in trillions of dollars of life support to keep the system feebly alive.
Punchline: The problem global leaders face is that if you unleash the nuclear option without some sort of cover, the sheeple and the markets would be thrown into a panic and you risk blowing things up prematurely. So you need a reason for putting the global economy on ice --- one that does not spook the masses – one that is big enough to justify such epic amounts of stimulus and extreme policies --- and one that allows you to explain ‘this is just temporary – once this is gone --- we will get back to normal’
A pandemic is the perfect cover.
End Game – Covid was foisted on us as cover for the response to peak oil (if we don’t slow the burn oil prices go through the roof and we collapse) but it is also being used to convince billions to be Injected. The Injection is meant to cause extremely deadly variants similar to Marek’s .. only worse because we are deploying into a pandemic https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/tthis-chicken-vaccine-makes-virus-dangerous.
“Mass infection prevention and mass vaccination with leaky Covid-19 vaccines in the midst of the pandemic can only breed highly infectious variants.” https://www.geertvandenbossche.org/
French virologist and Nobel Prize winner Luc Montagnier called mass vaccination against the coronavirus during the pandemic “unthinkable” and a historical blunder that is “creating the variants” and leading to deaths from the disease.

The Vaccines and Boosters will Result in a Catastrophic Outcome - From a scientific viewpoint it is, therefore, difficult to understand how booster immunizations using vaccines which are not evolution-proof could prevent a highly mutable virus from escaping neutralizing anti-S Abs while driving the pandemic in a catastrophic direction, both in Israel and worldwide. How can the WHO stand by and watch as this additional experiment unfolds, soon to be followed by other countries? https://thehighwire.com/videos/vaccine-expert-warns-of-covid-vaccination-catastrophe/

If you have a large pool of hosts that all have the same fixation, then you have a large number of individual labs in which to have such a mutation occur. You have far more hosts in which to have random chances occur, all selecting for a mutation that attacks one specific weakness and that weakness is in most of the population, so once it’s out, there is no stopping it. And if this fixation prevents the hosts from developing strong new immunities based on these novel pathogens, this becomes iterative. you get wave after wave of pandemics until you wipe out the susceptible population. https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/homogenizing-herd-level-antigenic
The reason for this is that 8B people need cheap energy to live. They would starve without it. And 8B people without food would result in epic starvation, violence, rape and cannibalism. Industrial civilization ends soon after peak oil. Unfortunately we also have 4000 spent fuel ponds that will boil off and release toxic substances for centuries. These facilities cannot be controlled with computers and energy. So even the few remaining hunters and gatherer tribes will die as they consume these toxins in the food, air and water.
The PTB understand all of this and that is WHY every leader is on board with the Injections. There is NO way out of this --- so they have decided to mitigate the suffering as much as possible by putting us down and here is the mechanism https://www.geertvandenbossche.org/post/why-the-ongoing-mass-vaccination-experiment-drives-a-rapid-evolutionary-response-of-sars-cov-2.
Also note – when BAU collapses the PTB will not be insulated from the violence or starvation – or the spent fuel ponds. They are likely to be scapegoated and targeted by violent hordes. There system of power collapses with BAU so their protectors abandon them (or worse – turn on them). They have chosen to go down with the ship rather than be skinned alive by angry mobs who will be blaming them for the fact that their families are starving.
