  1. I love the way people blame everything but themselves! Like…I was forced to, I was pressured, I had to because…it was no ones decision but yours! No one else's… you CHOSE TO DO IT because it was the path of least resistence!!! The easy way!!!

  2. It is quite interesting how the different govts play the middle line with Canada ceasing data sharing on the rise, anticipating deaths, and trying to keep numbers below, whereas the UK and Australia ceased on the fall with the vaccinating effect of Omicron now threatening the authoritarian fear opera that has given massive flex to Malthusian criminals, trying to keep numbers above the line. Of course, Canada's Banderites took out 30 000 mentally and physically disabled folks through its MAID service over this period.
    They also surely have been anticipating a very cold winter this year, due to the large increase in volcanic activity this year, or no? Best not get sheared this Fall, just sayin', IMO… (stay warm, burn fiat)

  3. Careful Dr. John. We appreciate you and your work and honest analysis. We don't want to see you punished like most of us. Balance things as best you can. Been following you more than 2.5 years.
