Today Service Corporation International, the largest for-profit funeral operator in North America, had its quarterly earnings call. SCI had another great quarter, you’ll be pleased to hear! So far in 2022 the company has made almost $500 million in profits - and its stock rose more than 10 percent today after its earnings report.
(Death is your best investment!)
—
SCI’s management seems fairly open with investors. For many years, much of the company’s growth came from buying family-run funeral homes as their operators, umm, died out. The underlying funeral business is slow growth and very predictable.
If you go back in this industry and particularly with SCI, year-to-year you would see the numbers of deaths -- probably in one year you may be down 1% or 2%, in the next year you're up 1% or 2% which you could predict was pretty good accuracy over a year and over a big footprint like ours what was probably going to happen… 2020 comes along, Covid, game-changer, right. We're having to do at one point of time 20 percent more funerals which is unheard of in a year versus, let's say, a year or two before.
So Service Corporation expected that once Covid passed, its business would go back to normal…
What we would have expected is, why wouldn't we go back towards, let's say, a 2019 level, maybe you get a percent or so growth of 2019, I would expect that. So that would be a reasonable level that we think would stabilize. And that's kind of what we anticipated...
Only that’s not what has happened.
What we're telling you is, the third quarter of this year, we did 15% more calls than we did in the third quarter of 2019. That is not what anybody would have anticipated and that has just a very de minimis amount of Covid deaths[emphasis added] in it.

Covid is gone. But people keep dying. Why?
Unsurprisingly, Ryan did not mention mRNA vaccines anywhere. Why would he? Doing so would only make for headaches he and Service Corporation do not need.
But, earlier in the call, he did point to “more cancer deaths” and more broadly a decline in overall health:
We believe these excess services are more permanent in nature into a combination of aging demographics, higher risk, less healthy lifestyle developed during the pandemic.
Ryan also suggested delayed medical care might be an issue.
These explanations are… strained, at best. Aging demographics are hardly new, and the lockdowns that drove a “less healthy lifestyle” ended as early as mid-2020 in most red states and by early 2021 almost everywhere. Opioids and overdoses generally remain a horrendous crisis, but deaths appear to have peaked in early 2022 and fallen slightly since. And for all the discussion of delays in medical care, hospitals and doctors offices have functioned essentially normally for at least 18 months.
In any case, the United States is hardly alone in seeing a large and so far unexplained spike in deaths in 2022. Countries from Germany to Australia to Taiwan are seeing similar trends.
They all have something in common. No points for guessing what.
In any case, Service Corporation is expecting business to stay good for years to come.
“These trends are hard to reverse quickly,” Ryan said. “I hope three, four, five years from now will subside a bit. But I don't think it's any time soon.”
I've been begging Alex, in comments, for months to make climate change his next target for investigation.
It's the same exact playbook.
If I ever get an elevator ride with RFK Jr, I'd love to ask him how he can be so lucid on vaccines and fall over the same exact rake with climate change!
There are numerous others with the chops to challenge the Greeners. No one has RFK's chops to challenge the vaccinators. He is doing the most good by staying in his lane, IMHO.
The point is that it's fascinating to me RFK can be so red-pilled about corruption, regulatory capture, scientific fraud, etc., when it comes to vaccines and so blue-pilled and naive when it comes to climate change, where the exact same tactics have been used.
Is that your whole argument? Kinda easy to penetrate. Because the climate changes doesn't mean humans are not changing it. Logic right? But how much are they changing it, and more than that, if it is changing radically, how are we to prepare? Shit is happening. You have to be in denial and hang with others who are. Insects disappearing is one that freaks me out and i see it where i live. Massive dye off of many species. Midwest aquifers drying up. That's going to impact food production as if it isn't already impacted in many ways. It all might be a conspiracy of the elites, though many are a result of industrial civilization. That is the heart of the issue for conservative. Industrial civilization is under threat. Many believe we can go on like this for another century and thrive and they have to videos to prove it. Their biases draw them towards commentators who will tell them what they want. Full disclosure: we all do that. My bias is away from industrial civilization and towards a more ruralified life. But i'll support anyone who is against war and state authoritarianism.
And you are right.. why? Cause you said it. That's all. That's all it takes and a group that echoes that back to ya.
There is such a thing as science you know. It's not that you can accept data one place and ignore it or manipulate it somewhere else. Conservatives want to go back to a time when it was okay to throw beer bottles out your window. I know. So finding like minded souls is not that hard in a dumbed down world.
"You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."
Frankly, to speak cogently on any of these topics require in depth studying, and dealing intelligently with the whole climate change thing is a huge without any easy ask.
Heck, getting fluoride out of municipal water is a super easy ask, and we've been tilting at that windmill for decades. We might be about to get somewhere with it, but it has taken enormous effort.
Vaccinations are harder than fluoridation, but still has an easy ask.
Wireless radiation damage from Smart Meters, networks and devices is harder, but still something that needs urgent attention. Bobby is on that one, too, and it is related to Climate Change Greenwashing.
We need multiple leaders, not just Bobby, to deal with the corruption and regulatory capture.
I’ll look at it, I don’t want to be like the other side and ignore anything that doesn’t follow a narrative, but right now I believe the globalists are the biggest threat to this planet.
Why don’t you do it? I think what he has on his plate is more than ample for now. Better to do one thing well than to do a couple of things mediocrely. Mediocrity can’t be risked.
Because nobody cares what internet nobody me says. Tons of prominent people have tried breaking the veil on climate insanity.
Alex is a highly effective communicator, has a huge audience, and back to my original point, should be able to see the exact same playbook that was used during covid.
Look for some of Patrick Moore's videos (former director of Greenpeace) - he is the man on climate change. Also Bjorn Lomborg. These actual scientists have a ton of research into this scam - so why would Alex get in the middle of that?
Because he's a journalist and that's what journalists do, especially ones with huge audiences and occasional access to even larger ones, like Rogan and Tucker. And, again, the parallels to COVID are very striking to me, so if he was interested in the COVID farse, I figure he'd be gob-smacked by the climate change cabal.
I'm well aware of all the wonderful doctors dispelling the nonsense on it. There have been plenty of doctors fighting against COVID, too. Why did Alex 'get in the middle of that'?
I agree with you, all I am saying is, think of the enormity of all of this, it would be impossible to tackle it all at once, also there ARE many environmental problems, climate change from people isn’t one of them, there has always been climate change. It sure would be great if we could stop big industry from killing everything on earth though wouldn’t it? Many of the same evil doers are responsible for that too.
Of course there's always been climate change. But, there's a massive threat to liberty and our way of life from people demanding power to "fix" climate change. The political threat from climate change insanity is covid-like.
Yeah nobody doesn't want clean air and water. But the proposed solutions - higher taxes, bigger government i.e. government control over every part of our lives, wiping out the cattle industry and replacing it with the insect industry, no more "fossil fuels" except in China, of course, -will lead to mass starvation and our way of life being decimated
I agree wholeheartedly...I hate all this carbon offset nonsense. I detest government interference...everywhere! There must be a way to "keep things clean" without all the shenanigans.
If I have to explain this to you again, I'm going to be forced to sign you up for re-education.....uh......which is of course wonderful and totally not a thing you would be forced into!
Once he was out of office, he was able to personally smuggle the classified files for our weather-changing program to Putin, who finally gave Trump the pee tape.
I don't think that's what happen. A Russian Secret Agent, let's call him Yuri, brought a laptop into a repair shop in Wilmington, DE and he pretended to be Hunter Biden. On the laptop were incriminating photos of Hunter Biden sniffing coke off of prostitutes' rear-ends. This was all part of the Russian disinformation campaign. No one knows how or why the Russians would do this. It's believed that the file on this secret operation is part of the National Archives and it was at Trump's mar-a-lago and is now in the hands of the FBI. We all know that Trump is a Russian spy and according to the women on The View, he's also a liar and a thief.
The US did have excess deaths in 2020 also but not due to any unique epidemiological event.
In 2020 the excess can mainly be attributed to the mass medical murders in nursing homes and hospitals and the impacts of lockdowns and social dislocation.
Here's the exact data:
United States reported 3,353,787 deaths, for the 52 weeks of year 2020 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,920,345. That is an increase of +433,442 deaths (+14.8%).
United States reported 3,457,517 deaths for the 52 weeks of year 2021 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,947,287. That is an increase of +510,230 deaths (+17.3%).
Year to date, United States reported 2,548,784 deaths for the 41 weeks of year 2022 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,338,304. That is an increase of +210,480 deaths (+9.0%).
Very good question. When I look at CDC weekly all cause deaths it looks pretty flat & about normal. USA about 60,000 deaths/week. Is the claim that pandemic deaths were so high that we should be much lower & "normal" means excess deaths?
You are right in one way but 'Following the science' was used to shut down any discussion on covid. It's a bit like saying 'Doing what's best for the children'. Who could possibly disagree?
Trouble is, real 'science' can only exist if it is challenged and tested. As for climate change, I would suggest first we need to get rid of the billions of dollars of fossil fuel subsidies to even up the field.
Well I just read last week from the main stream media that the unvaccinated are causing the vaccinated to have heart attacks and blood clots due to the stress they cause them.
What's funny is I heard one reason the virus mutates so much is because its trying to fool the vaccine. So in a sense, the vaccines create mutants strains of covid.
Right. And yet those media aholes aren't smart enough to realize (or they know their consumers are too stupid to figure out) that ONLY the jabbed are dying of stress. The purebloods aren't having heart attacks and blood clots from the "stress" of being dehumanized for not taking the experimental drug, from the stress of being ostracized, from the stress of losing their jobs.
Funny that ONLY the jabbed are dying from stress. Gee, I wonder what's different between the jabbed and the unjabbed...
Breaking news.....The Russians to blame for climate change! They're probably trying to thaw out Siberia so they'd be able to grow their own food to feed their people.
Once he was out of office, he was able to personally smuggle the classified files for our weather-changing program to Putin, who finally gave Trump the pee tape.
Ha! New PSA: "Ease up on the breaks for climate change causing blood clots" Tiny print: [This message sponsored by Pfizer and the CDC and Clown World].
SC, My, but you have a lot on your mind today. I am constantly befuddled at the apparent outright dismissal of Climate Change on these predominantly US stacks.
I am under no illusions that the same nefarious evil psychos behind the scamdemic have not hijacked the climate agenda for their own gains.
But that does not make it fundamentally untrue.
I have studied the issue extensively for over four years to the same extent as the current scamdemic. What is your opinion based on? We're all experiencing the power of propaganda and mass psychosis.
There are huge powerful forces on both sides of this argument and the deniers only have to create the slightest doubt. Ultimately one side is right and one side is wrong. The stakes couldn't be higher. We've never trashed the whole planet before, so maybe keep an open mind, at least for now?
I'd start by asking what you mean by "dismissal of Climate Change", because recognizing the vacuity of that statement might help orient things.
Does climate change mean the climate changes? Because nobody would disagree with that. It's the strawman of strawmen.
Or, does it mean, *predicted* catastrophic increases in temperature (literally) decades from now is causing every weather calamity that befalls us today and that the only way to relieve your anxiety over that is to give massive amounts of money and power to Democrats so they implement policies they've always wanted to implement, which will solve climate change, hurray! (Even though China and India are still going to be emitting massive amounts of CO2 that dwarf anything the US is doing today, but don't pay attention to that).
Tommy, Thanks for responding. I suspect this is not the place to discuss this as it is off-topic but it is so often treated as a joke here.
What I mean is man-made climate change, caused by emitting Gigatons of greenhouse gases which warm the planet.
The global temperature has already risen by 1.2 degrees, 2-3 times more in the Arctic, and we are already experiencing more extreme and more frequent weather events all around the world.
It transcends political parties of any country and national borders by definition - it's global. To give us any chance of mitigating and reducing the effects we all have to systematically change otherwise we will be doomed as our life support systems collapse. And 'decades from now' is still within the expected lifetime of my children.
A famous British comedian did a sketch on climate, recycling etc. He said he used to follow the rules until he went to the state's - and thought WTF! It got a big laugh. Here in UK we only contribute to 1% globally but we all need to do our bit because if it isn't already too late we are in borrowed time.
There is SO much green washing and governmental and corporate crap spouted by both sides - but it doesn't stop the main central threat being true: the planet is warming and we are the cause. Peace.
I don't see any reason this conversation shouldn't be had here, as you are apparently learned and Tommy is willing to engage. I'd happily hear you both out and see if I can learn something new.
You might be locally, but this is global. Other parts of the world e.g. parts of India, are periodically approaching wet bulb status = too hot to sustain human life.
But it's not just about getting hotter per se, it's the effect on all the weather patterns and extremes, of heat, cold, drought, flood, wind etc.
The global temperature has risen by 1.2 degrees *since when*? Temperatures have been mostly flat for the last 20 years and are no warmer in the US than they were in the 1930s or 1940s.
We are NOT experiencing more extreme and more frequent weather events. You can read Dr. Pielke's dismantling of that. But, more importantly, a mild 1.2 degrees of warming back to where we were 80 years ago wouldn't cause it anyway. You have been tricked into thinking the catastrophic warming doomsayers are predicting years from now, and which they say will cause more extreme weather, is actually causing more extreme weather today. It's not entirely your fault. If you read articles about a hurricane or whatever, they say things like, "this is what we can expect from climate change".
But, you don't get the catastrophic fallout from unprecedented warming without...unprecedented warming.
The question of whether more CO2 will warm the planet is the question, so if you just go ahead and assert that's the case, that's literal question begging. Have you ever asked yourself, has CO2 been higher than it is today? Have temperatures been higher? What happened to life on the planet then? How well have the models being used to predict global warming done at predicting the last 20 years?
You haven't even begun to scratch the surface of the arguments against this nonsense.
It's already happening. The arctic is increasingly melting and global weather patterns are changing fast.
The weather, ie day to day temperatures, is not the same as global temperature. It's a different caclulation.
CO2 is not the only greenhouse gas - methane is much, much worse and is also rising fast. Siberia is thawing!
Of course the climate models are inaccurate - we haven't done this before - it may not be linear. There could be catastrophic tipping points.
Of course the global temperature has previously been much higher and CO2 many times higher, but not when 7 billion humans have basically taken over the whole world.
We are apparently using the resources of 1.7 planets. It is completely unsustainable and we ignore it at our peril.
I have spent years studying this with global experts who I believe are comparable in intellect and knowledge with the amazing people who have saved us here from the nonsense of covid.
Either they are all wrong, I am an idiot and you are right, or perhaps just maybe it deserves some more of your time. Peace
Setting aside the research showing weather events aren't getting more severe, you just said the global temperature has risen by 1.2 degrees (you declined to say since when). Satellite data show warming trends of 0.13 degree per decade since the late 70s. *That's not nearly enough to cause the extreme weather of CAGW*. Temperatures haven't accelerated, they've mostly flatlined the last 20 years. If whether events have gotten more extreme, it's in spite of it not warming, not because it has been warming.
If the models are inaccurate, then there's no basis to believe global warming theory because the whole theory is built on models, feedback cycles, and parameter tuning. If you'd studied for years with experts, you would probably know that.
The whole bit about "humans taking over the world" to dismiss the fact that temperatures and CO2 have been much higher without consequence is quite a non sequitur.
I am not impressed by your experts, just as I wasn't impressed with the COVID experts. We know how that turned out. Like the COVID experts, they shunned, shamed, mocked, etc., dissenting voices. Like COVID, climate change is a massive propaganda campaign. You believe outright lies and absurdities and can't break out of the nonsense to see it.
The simple fact is that we're over carrying capacity for the planet with the no of people and our lifestyles.
Onw immediate challenge is that it takes 10-12 calories of FF to generate 1 calorie of food. FF are in decline and No, EVs aren't going to run Industrial Ag. Other challenges include that various ecosystems are f--d.
A lot of us will be exiting earlier than expected whichever way you look at it. However the globalist crowd would like to see us exit even sooner than the natural decline and collapse process entails.
That's not a "simple fact". It's an opinion, and one that people have had for centuries. They've *all* been wrong in part because they radically underestimate human ingenuity.
125 years ago, a major concern was overcrowding in cities and what to do with all the horse manure. People were worried about how they'd light their homes when whale oil ran out. They worried about running out of firewood, and then they worried about running out of coal.
The US is sitting on an ocean of natural gas. Known Uranium deposits could power the entire world for thousands of years. A nuclear + hydrogen economy would power us for millenia. Can you imagine what could be invented in that period of time?
Goto Our World in Data and look at crop yields over the last 50 years. It's amazing, and we're probably just getting started.
You literally live in the most prosperous era in the history of human kind and you worry like this? One thing that could bring us down are idiot politicians and their coercive programs of scarcity and warfare, like they've been doing for thousands of years.
Hi Tommy, I often think of the whale oil example, and the fact that we were almost the cause of whales going extinct. We always seem to exploit everything to destruction - look at tuna and sharks today...
I also think of wars in the same way: in days of yore two men with swords could only kill each other. Now two men could blow up the whole planet.
We have moved on with our capacity for mass destruction and the thing is with the planet's systems is that by the time the effects become apparent it will be too late to do anything about it.
I agree with your point on our capacity to invent when needed, yet still we do stupid things - and all for money. Look at Hydrogen, you can make it the green way (solar) or the blue way (natural gas) which have hugely different CO2 implications. And which way do you think Australia are making it? (Sorry, no prizes.)
And every time the crops yields rise (usually destroying the soil and all insect life with chemicals - like glyphosate) the world's population increases and makes all the other problems even worse.
Totally agree we need a new power source - and Now! Peace.
But, as we've already covered, I don't think CO2 is a problem at all. It's a colorless, harmless, gas to animals and a fertilizer to plants. It's maddening, but after the decades of propaganda, it's probably unlikely to red-pill anyone about how silly the CAGW idea is.
There are two fundamental problems with this Malthusian world view you guys seem to have. The first is, you've mostly forgotten or never learned about the existential crisis humans used to face, because those problem have been solved and we generally don't think about solved problems. Two guys with a sword is a nice euphemism for what was, in reality, the equivalent idea that a marauding army could destroy what you considered to be your whole world. The second problem is that the solution to our current problems are in the future and as yet unknown. So, past solutions are forgotten or diminished and future solutions aren't apparent, so you're heavily biased toward despair.
Your fears about 'planet systems', etc, are bordering on neurotic. It hasn't happened before, certainly not due to CO2, and it's not happening now outside of computer models built by scientists funded by people who want you to believe in CAGW. It is thoroughly corrupt.
The world's population has already peaked. It's far more likely our biggest problems in 30 years will be due to the demographic shift of too few young people and too few old people. Japan may not even exist in 50 years because of it.
Tommy, Tommy, Tommy... I'm really enjoying our 'chat' - Thank you. I do hope you're not an Agent Provocateur? I don't consider myself neurotic at all - I just read lots and try and process stuff. I try to keep an open mind as much as possible: is there really anything such as Truth?
I respond:
CO2 was 280ppm pre industrial revolution, 350ppm by the time I was born and is now 415ppm - it's going up. And so is methane. Apparently levels have been massively higher in the past and this is our sixth extinction level event.
(I watched something once where this scientist was saying without CO2 the earth would be 30 degrees cooler so we do need it. I listen to both sides)
Are you saying that the Arctic isn't warming two to three times faster than the rest of the planet and the Albedo effect of open water is wrong? have you heard of Peter Wadham? 50 years experience of measuring the ice - well I believe him.
'Two guys with swords' - can now destroy the whole earth - our impact is different now. And there are 5 billion more of us; billions with energy rich lifestyles.
Nobody knows if the world population has peaked because you can't count what hasn't happened yet, it might change again. I know about Japan's problems (we may read some of the same stuff). The changing demographic is largely economic, not environmental. I'm sure the world would benefit from fewer of us (but naturally - not eugenics)
I fully appreciate the climate models will be inaccurate (look at the covid ones...) and that the evil ones have taken over the agenda - but that doesn't mean 'something' is not happening.
I don't know what it is (we are only as good as what we read or hear), it might be CO2, or the Grand Solar Minimum or Milankovitch Cycles or entirely natural - I have no idea.
BUT - things ARE changing. Even where I live I have noticed it increasingly for years; the seasons are later and less defined, the weather regularly gets stuck, we get extremes of wet and dry etc.
It didn't rain for six weeks in the summer and there was hardly ever even a breeze (we live right on the coast) it was SO hot I had to stay indoors day after day. Now it is November and we have most of the leaves still on the trees and roses in full bloom - it shouldn't be like this.
YM has just hit the jackpot. Because more communism always results in deaths of millions and millions of people and the fewer people we have then the less global warming - all those people fart methane and exhale CO2, dontchaknow. Communism and tyranny is the solution to global warming. Goodness, if we gave people freedom to go where they want how they want eating what they want and making more people as much as they want we'll all soon be dead!! Better to kill a significant subset of us now to avoid that!!
There are a great many people here who think that covid and the vaccines were created precisely as a means to reduce global population - they're well into killing millions already.
No communists required.
On the other hand, climate breakdown and a collapse of all our life support systems, like being able to grow enough food, transcends any and all political systems, including communism. Peace
The earth has been stable for about the last 10,000 years which has allowed us to flourish. It is now warming - fast.
I agree that govt response is piecemeal and totally inadequate. A total waste of time and money. They are relying on unicorn technologies which don't exist yet - and we are running out of time.
I agree that we desperately need nuclear as a transition fuel, despite it's potential dangers and drawbacks. The wind doesn't always blow or the sun shine.
Personally I think it is already too late and we are totally f*cked. The changes take years to kick in and take effect.
The only thing that could possibly save us is cold fusion or maybe green hydrogen, if they can be developed quickly enough to scale.
But first we have to be honest about the size of the existential crisis.
* The earth has not been stable for the last 10,000 years. The Laurentide Ice Sheet still covered much of Canada and a significant portion of the northern US 10,000 years ago and we have been in an interglacial warming period since then, resulting in significant changes in weather patterns, flora and fauna, and sea levels until present.
* You argue that the Government response to changing climate has been piecemeal and inadequate and a total waste of time and money. Wouldn't a larger and more coordinated response by a bunch of morons like John Kerry just be a greater waste of time and money. The technologies the Gov is relying on are wind, solar and batteries. No unicorns involved, just very low energy density, intermittent, expensive and completely inadequate to modern life.
* Nuclear is, by many orders of magnitude, the most energy dense source we have to chose from, and it has by far the best safety track record of any industrial process on the planet. It is not a transition fuel, it is the endgame to maintianing our energy intesive quality of life.
* As for timing of being f*cked or not, climate change happens over hundreds if not thousands of years. The Dutch somehow figured out how to live under sea level using late middle age (1200-1500) tecnology, and the Inuit and Beduin figured out how to live in completely inhospitable environments using stone age technology. I think we can figure out how to adapt with our current state of tech.
* You obviously know virtually nothing about energy technology if you think cold fusion or green hydrogen are somehow the only possible solutions.
* Let's be honest the only existential crisis is that power hungry elitists want to play god under the guise of $¢ien¢e and are willing to destroy our way of life to get their way.
Hi Big Tex, Something you said, 'you obviously know virtually nothing about energy technology'. Maybe I don't, compared to you, but it's probably unfair and generally not nice to just assume.
So, you like nuclear? Here's some of what I know in UK. Hope you find it interesting.
In the UK we have had massive under investment in energy apart from wind for decades. We used to be world leaders in nuclear - the expertise is all gone. We have three new plants under construction, they are already years late, £ billions over budget and still not expected to produce power for at least a decade. One is being built with French company EDF (80% state owned and effectively bankrupt). Their reactor design has not yet been made to work - they are building another one in Finland of the same design which is even more overdue and has not yet worked.
Another of the plants is being built with Chinese money - I wonder how that is panning out. Again, huge problems and delays - I wonder if any of them will ever produce anything.
Meanwhile, we have a huge old nuclear plant, Sizewell B, which has been closed for years and will cost £ billions to decommission (which we haven't got) and take forever - they just keep it stable. (One downside of nuclear)
The French have found cracks in many of their reactors and have had to close them down. The Germans have closed all theirs for political reasons - Greens in charge Now they have no Russian gas (daft idea to depend on it!) they are even destroying villages to get at their Lignite - the filthiest of coals.
The UK is set to close the remainder of its coal powered stations by 2025. Can't see it happening, but if it does we will be left with next to nothing - like the Germans now.
Meanwhile, we have Drax Power Station: it runs on wood pellets shipped from The States and is subsidised with £ billions from the UK tax payer whose energy bills are inflated by a green levy of 25%. It is the biggest emitter of CO2 in the country but the emissions do not even figure on the UK CO2 stats because it is considered carbon neutral! It is the biggest load of political bollocks ever!! Now they are destroying prime Canadian forests to feed the furnaces (but what do they care - look at their tar sands: a total ecological disaster). They have/are in the process of installing two new huge gas turbines at Drax with space for a carbon capture plant (which of course doesn't exist at scale - they built a huge one in Australia - a complete failure).
Whilst I'm on: You also mentioned salt? I assume you mean molten salt? What's that huge plant in US desert with all the mirrors which I think was built to keep the lights on in places like Vegas? Apparently huge problems with corrosion due to salt and also is now twice the energy price of alternatives - another mothballed white elephant.
We are ALL in a BIG mess! Meanwhile energy demand just grows and grows... Peace
I do apologize for the "know virtually nothing" comment. I spent a career financing energy infrastructure around the world and get a bit passionate and perhaps dogmatic about the topic of energy policy and technology. I agree that there are issues with the timing and cost of new build nuke plants, but much of that is due to over zealous regulators. Also, agree that there are issues with the aging nuclear fleet of light water reactors, but there are maintenance fixes to these issues and new reactor designs present longer term solutions.
Well this is getting good. Thank you for engaging. I respond:
When I say stable I mean able to support human life.
When I say unicorn technology I mean carbon capture and storage. It appears to be their favourite dream.
Nuclear - why not cold fusion too? It apparently had none of the downsides. Though I read that the new model fission plants are better than the old ones. There may well be other options, but where are they? We need them now!
We don't know the timescales of Climate Change. if major tipping points are reached it could spin into overdrive very quickly.
And the planet's population was apparently about 2 billion until we started burning fossil fuels - now over 7 billion which requires much more of everything. And most of us are urban - with no clue of how to survive.
Totally agree the elites have hijacked the agenda. They are so pompous and dumb to think they can control it whilst maintaining their position.
Cornwall, always happy to engage in conversation on some of my favorite topics. I respond to your response:
* The first known hominids date to approximately 6 million years ago. Over the course of that 6 million years the earth has experienced cyclic heating and cooling periods with a total temperature range of more than 10 degrees c, but generally trending toward cooling. Hominid (let's say human) life was able to survive and thrive under such variable conditions without the benefit of air conditioning or anitbiotics (getting back to the Covid part of the thread).
* I agree that CCS is a silly unicorn "technology" that will ultimately be abandoned after spending billions.
* Cold fusion is at best theoretical and more likely science fiction. Hot fusion like the Tokamak reactor design requires such a high energy input to start the reaction and to contain it that the scientific goal to date has just been to achieve break-even. The best result to date has been 16Mw of output to 24Mw of input, in spite of multi-decade international joint efforts like ITER. It would take far more space for me to cover all of the details surrounding Nuclear (fission) than is appropriate for a Covid thread, but here is something to think about. Most of our thinking about nuclear is based on 1950's and 1960's technology and clouded by visions of nuclear warfare, potential runaway reaction disaster, and long lived waste disposal issues. The current state of the technology addresses each of the proliferation, safety and waste issues. If all of the clouds of history were erased, and space aliens handed us the blueprints to the currently available technologies, we would embrace it as a gift from god.
* Tipping points are the climate "science" equivalent to the Covid fear porn that was used to control the populace. Nothing happens quickly or irreversably in a climate the scale of ours. Notice that it is always geniuses like Al Gore, John Kerry, AOC, Greta Thunberg and the whole WEF cabal pushing the threat of our imminent demise to do big things now. Doing big things now = consolidating political power and money.
* All I will say about population growth is that, in spite of nonstop Malthusian predictions otherwise, humankind has been able to thrive and prosper while growing from 2 bln to 7+bln. The quality of life of the lowest 10% of the current population is better than that of the top 1% before we started burning fossil fuels. I am no Pollyanna, but I have great confidence in our ability to innovate and adapt. The greatest fear I have is the avarice of the political class and the dangers they pose through war and other massive misallocation of resources.
But, we do have things like molton salt thorium and other modern nuclear designs that are ignored by the people who claim there's an existential crisis, yet mysteriously avoid solving it. As I said in a different fork, modern nuclear is the Ivermectin (or HCQ) of climate change. It's the solution everyone avoids because they don't want a solution, and that says a lot.
Except, you're not allowed to say that because they use the same tactics as they have with COVID -- people who depart from the orthodoxy are silenced. And, that says a lot, too.
Heh. Let's get the pfun out of funerals. Vote carefully.
"“If you help me win, I promise to subpoena every last document of Dr. Fauci’s unprecedented coverup,” said a [Rand] Paul fundraising email sent Oct. 20."
"GOP control would give the libertarian doctor — an outspoken critic of the government’s coronavirus policies — the power to lead investigations and help set legislative priorities."
Grim tho it may be, I bought some SCI stock during the depths of the Atrocities, when it became obvious what was coming... and it's doing well. Same with STON (Stonemor Inc), another funeral company.
As long as the government keeps paying them to. You don’t suppose they aren’t getting federal subsidies of some sort to cover their losses, do you? I bet they’re buried somewhere in the CARES act.
I have read that morticians are discovering weird, several-foot long, blood clots in the corpses they are embalming. The unexplained-death rate, according to the Alberta, Canada government has gone up astronomically. Yeah, yeah, correlation isn't causation. But the covid vaccines have to be under suspicion as the culprit.
My niece is an autopsy assistant. She is seeing lots of Fentenyl deaths but her dad is a Mortician and definitely the morticians are seeing those bizarre long clots.
I am thinking the same. I'm not a MAGA-maniac, but I really suspect the CDC of pushing a lot of nonsense, and I'm not sure why they are doing that. The vaccine for kids is just stupid. Nobody thinks that's good idea except the CDC.
"why they are doing that"...is because the pharma industry underwrites them and the CDC brings in millions this way in addition to investing in medical patents aligned with pharma
HOw are they going to meet their 90% population reduction without vaxxxxxines?
And 70-80% of children will be sterilized! The Eugenics crowd is having mass hysteria just thinking how many people will be removed from the Earth. This alone will make Earth much better for the 10% who survive.
Once the vaxxxxines were approved for children, no testing needed-automatically approved for EVERYBODY with NO liability. Now go down and get your entire family vaxxxed and boosted. It's the right thing to do to save the Earth.
For those who don't make it, heart failure caused by myocarditis will be quick, with massive heart failure many are dead before they hit the ground. You won't feel a thing.
a healthy society is just not a good business model for Pharma. Create the problem provide the "only" options as perceived solution "grounded in science" (tis tis) such as high priced patented medications and voila! A pipeline of ongoing profits. Rinse and repeat. Just sayin...
Sounds like the script from the Three Stooges episode “Pest Man Wins” where as exterminators, they purposely infest a house with vermin then knock on front door asking if the owners need pest control.
I know 3 people who have died suddenly in their sleep in the last 2 weeks. One I know was after a combined flu/CoVid booster and another after the booster. Not sure on the 3rd. I’ve never experienced that before. This is more than the number of people I directly know that died from CoVid
",,,we were lied to from the beginning. I don’t believe this has been a novel cause of illness and death other than our governments’ responses to the fake pandemic.... They’ve lied about the public health emergency, they’ve lied about the necessity and usefulness of the measures, and they’ve lied about the design, research, development, and use of these so-called vaccines..." - Dr. Michael Yeadon
I'm sure the untested mRNA has caused many deaths, cancer cases and other health issues. We know ACM is way up in 25-45. I'd be curious to see the 2022 birth rates with all the female and male reproduction issues the mRNA has caused that we continue to hear about I wonder if we are up or down from previous years?
"Crisis as excess deaths soar to levels higher than the Covid pandemic" Headline from The Telegraph today. Excess deaths are running 13% above normal in England and Wales according to the ONS compared to 2019. Non Covid excess deaths are three times higher than Covid deaths (Or deaths with Covid). And the explanation from doctors....Delayed or skipped medical treatments. I recall reading about two doctor strikes in the 1960s in Israel and California. The death rates dropped in both cases. I am not buying the delayed or skipped medical treatment argument.
The numbers are good, but not good enough... so we'll just have to have another war... this time a really, Really, REALLY BIG one... One so big that it will make WWII look like a junior varsity team tryout.
I don't think so. Another release of a bioweapon will do the trick. And nobody will try to trace the origin so nobody will pay the price for their evil.
We seem to lack a conscience of opinion on the weapons that will be used in the next global conflict... as far a s "nobody will try to trace the origin"... let's see what the consequences of our bio-labs may turn out to be in Ukraine before we discount any accountability.
Gotta disagree with doctors and hospitals functioning normally. In rural areas (where I am a healthcare provider), the system broke and was never fixed. Doctors refused to see sick people in person (still to this day, they make them do telehealth if they feel I’ll and as anyone actually practices medicine will tell you, you need to lay hands on a patient to properly diagnose them). Students graduated never having been properly trained in their finally years of residency. Smaller hospitals and clinics are closing. Older practitioners are still retiring earlier than they had planned further exacerbating a significant shortage of both primary care and specialty care, especially in underserved areas like where I live and work. The level of care never went back to pre-Covid and continues to worsen. I’m not saying the vaccines have nothing to do with the higher than expected mortality rates. I am saying that the harms from those vaccines combine with the failure of the healthcare system to rebound fully is contributing to the higher than anticipated mortality rates.
Here in WA we're still suffering the effects of the 10% drop in hospital capacity from Jay Inslee's stupid mandates. Nationwide the drop seems about the same. Remember when we had to do all this to ensure that hospitals weren't overrun?
It was always a joke. Anyone who has worked in medicine (and is honest) knows this. The private practices were gobbled up by large corporations and/or hospitals. Now, the doctors aren’t in charge. That puts in charge the idiot administrators, none of whom ever treat a patient or look someone in the eye to tell them they will die from a tumor that would have been diagnosed earlier and treatable even ten years ago. The system was not working well before Covid. After Covid, it is broken except maybe for those in large urban areas and those with means to access the care. For those of us up here in the sticks, we are forgotten.
very true. The fact that the docs all work for hospitals or insurance companies or academia means that they are controllable. If they don’t do what the idiot admins direct them to do (recommend vaccines for all, for instance), they can be fired and become unemployable. This is a feature of Obamacare, not a bug
Yes! All the incentives have 'encouraged' bureaucratic control over health care. IMO whoever can invent an Uber-like that summons a doctor when you're sick (Housecall style!) is gonna be a billionaire.
Healthcare occurs between you and your doctor. Every middleman piled between the two of you simply drives up cost and reduces effectiveness.
Yes! We need to return to the days when the patient is the boss and the doctor is the employee of the patient. With that relationship, the doctor needs to do right by the patient. The patient is their number one focus. The system is so warped right now because the doctor doesn’t work for the patient anymore. Now the doctor works for the hospital or the clinic or the insurance. So, their primary focus is to make those entities happy. They no longer have the incentive to make the patient happy. And forget about taking good care of your patients to build a good reputation to attract more patients. Now, the patient has to see whoever the insurance or the hospital or the clinic dictates they see.
Exactly describes what happened where I live. Multiple rural hospitals closed. I just read an article about the nearest one only having 1 ER doc on the weekends now and you will wait 10 hours or so.
Up here in rural NY, we don't even have ER doctors anymore. They are all NPs and PAs. While I strongly believe that there is a place for NPs and PAs in healthcare, they should not be the only provider available in an emergency room. Our closest ER with actual real doctors is over an hour away.
Further complicating the issue is that the primary care practices here won't see patients who are sick. They tell them to go to the ER for things that are not emergent. The doctors and their staff don't want to stay late or miss lunch. Since they are salaried employees of the hospital, they have no incentive to stay late or to see more patients. They get paid the same, so why would they want to do more work? We have a severe shortage of good primary medicine which ends up overrunning the emergency room with nonsense that the primary guys should be dealing with.
Even five years ago things were not this bad. COVID broke a system already in decline and this clearly is leading to increased morbidity and mortality.
NE PA here. Our closest is almost an hour also. I never want to have to go, but now I truly and actively dread it. My daughter gets all kinds of hell when I see her messing around on her horse too much! I know I did way more but there were hospital visits involved lol
Just went to Mass for All Souls’ Day at my church. I have never seen so many candles lit and so many names called for my congregation. It’s has to be no less than 25% more than normal.
My Canadian nonagenarian grandmother who has been very vocal and people not doing the right thing and getting the vaccines told me in her last email that 5 of her friend recently got diagnosed with cancer and she’s never seen anything like it
(Unfortunately) this was completely predictable based on the "gold standard" randomized clinical trial results. The Pfizer RCT had at least 17% excess non-COVID deaths with vaccination (14 vaccine vs. 12 placebo- they reported even worse numbers elsewhere), and the Moderna RCT had 15% excess non-COVID deaths (15 vaccine vs 13 placebo).
Of course, even during the height of the pandemic these RCTs showed absolutely no lives saved overall by the vaccines because these increases in non-COVID deaths completely offset the reductions in COVID deaths. But now that a) COVID deaths have been steady near record lows for months, due to many things: the wide availability of Paxlovid which actually works unlike the vaccines, natural immunity, less severe variants, etc, and b) the vaccines have been hugely ineffective even at preventing COVID deaths for about a year, the vaccine is essentially ALL risk and NO benefit at the present time.
I agree it was an atrocious crime against humanity that IVM was suppressed and millions died needlessly around the world. And I would personally prefer to take IVM+FLCCC protocols rather than Paxlovid. But given that IVM is nearly impossible to get nowadays, I think our side should still admit that Paxlovid saves lives (for the minority of people who need it) while the mRNA vaccines kill more than they save.
Actually, considering that covid plus all the wrong medical decisions like ventilators Remsdevir, lockdowns, etc would have cleared away alot of, um, deadwood, ( i.e. those that were probably going to die, did, but we also pushed many, many more less frail people off the cliff too), one would reasonably expect recent mortality to be much less than 2019.
the drug companies will lie to you, the public health bureaucrats will lie to you, the government will lie to you. the stock market and insurance actuaries will never lie. for them it's dollars
I wonder if Paul Pelosi, Hunter or Fauci put any money on Service Corporation before the big numbers showed up. Maybe we should check with the SEC or some other watchdog.
Since the early 1970s attempts have been made to create a coronavirus vaccine. All attempts have been failures, the usual result being a condition variously called "Antibody Dependent Enhancement" / "Paradoxical Immune Response" or "Pathogenic Priming": Test animals would display robust antibody production -- but on exposure to the virus, develop severe forms of the disease and die. And while ADE carried on into the mRNA "vaccines", there is no reason to believe the Russian Chinese vaxes won't also result in ADE. RFKjr.'s "The Real Anthony Fauci is a Must Read on all that; also read "Turtles All the Way Down" for other fun factoids on vaccination... 🙄
Yes, except most of those countries sadly squandered their likely advantage by putting an mRNA booster on top to ruin things. Same with UK which used the AstraZeneca initially.
I looked at CSV when I bought SCI. I don't remember why I chose SCI, but there was a reason I didn't pick CSV. Didn't feel that it would benefit from this jab issue. I try to be agnostic when I look at stocks. Not happy to benefit from this situation, but I didn't cause it.
About a year ago, I went through the mutual funds I own to make sure there was no Pfizer, Moderna or life insurers in the top 10 stocks they own. So far, I don't think that's made much difference, but it may at some point. I had to sell one or two.
Cancer, dementia & diabetes deaths have skyrocketed in Australia & make up most of the 15,000 excess deaths. I bet it’s the same in the US. Keytruda cancer treatment sales are through the roof. It started in feb 2021 in Australia. Something is well off. You might expect more deaths from cancer due to not seeing a Dr but a large increase in diagnosis is not normal.
Well, according to recent articles on Arkmedic's substack, the data from NSW has been manipulated. The question arises then, how to get a raw data set from the AUS govt.?
You can read Arkmedic's blog on the NSW data issue here:
Yes, Ethical Skeptic has been doing a lot of data analysis, the conclusions reached are sobering, one would think this would grab the attention of more pubic health officials. https://twitter.com/EthicalSkeptic
Omicron was and is a 'nothing-burger'. The MSM in Australia is about as bad as it gets; I turned them all off early 2021 and will never go back. For example, Sky News Australia is good on the global warming scam but they won't touch the vax democide with a ten foot pole.
Alex,if you remember about 1,5 years ago it was triple overdose case's to seeing a true covid-19 patient. MOST AMERICANS ARE BEGGING FOR BIDEN AND
HARRIS TO JUST LEAVE!
Again if this was happening under Ted Cruz this would be front page news for the legacy media. They the legacy media is not paying attention just like the millions they took from our pharmaceutical companies.
Anthony, Is Harris even still Biden's deputy? D'ye know I haven't seen or heard of her in about18 months in all I read and watch. She is totally invisible.
I realise I am in the UK but we are like the 51st state - whatever BS happens in the US eventually infects us too.
I saw a clip of her recently cackling over the prospect of electric school buses. Meanwhile our southern border, which I thought she was put in charge of, is wide open. So if you want to migrate, that’s the way in.
but yeah, mostly she stays hidden in the background until biden screws something up & people start saying we should remove him via the 25th amendment.
then they'll schedule some event for her to speak at & play the video on all the stations to remind everyone that she would take over if biden is removed.
From what the science and medical experts say (those on the right side of history), we’ve got approx 2/3 more years (post these poison death shots) of serious vaxx injuries and, thus, high death counts to come. It’s going to be horrific, as it is currently. It’s very hard to come to terms with as we all have loved ones who have taken these shots. Let’s set our intention to believing there will be as many survivors as possible. 🙏🏻 Brace yourselves.
I’m in my early 60’s & woke up today to a text from my close high school friend telling us her brother in law (mid 60’s) unexpectedly dropped dead from a heart attack...this not too long after another close friend lost her 68 yr old brother in law from a sudden unexpected heart attack...and we recently lost a close friend within the last 9 months to a strange combo of liver & pancreatic cancers...and another close friend who died from sudden brain trauma after a fall while getting out of the shower in July...we’re almost reeling at this point...Alex your post today was nothing short of IRONIC & prophetic?!? Something isn’t right.
I’m so sorry to hear about your aunt 🥲 and pray for her healing! 🙏 It seems medically/scientifically logical and critically important to vigilantly track any connection with these sudden adult health crises/deaths with vaccination at this point??
Family owned funeral homes are becoming a thing of the past. They are coalescing into monopolies based on locality. If you don't believe it go do some preplan shopping and visit every funeral home you care to and they will all come down to with 1 maybe $200 for the entire package which will be a significant portion of a mortgage. $10-$15k is the range for a bare bones basic funeral. Cremations are even more ridiculous. You can cremate several bodies on a 20# propane tank yet the average cost is over $1,000. Seriously, an urn is more expensive than the process to cremate a body.
As an aside, you don't think russia created mobile crematoria to use in Ukraine if it cost $1,000 per corpse do you? Nope, they did it because it is incredibly inexpensive and costs far less than shipping a body back to the motherland.
And you still do not believe this is a death jab? I feel like our whole world is in a burning building and people are saying this building is on fire, but the owner of the building is saying stay where you are everything is fine the building is not on fire. You smell smoke and screams are heard FIRE ; yet the announcement comes that it’s not on fire only someone who burnt something in the kitchen. Then you see the flames leaping through the door many scream FIRE !! Once again the manager says your crazy its not what you think you are fine don’t believe what you see!! At this point it’s too late….
I feel in good company asking this question here but I don't understand how "we" can be the only people connecting the dots. How is it that we're not hearing any outrage that yet another 49-year-old suddenly died of a heart attack? Another 29-year-old professional athlete in peak physical form suddenly passed away.
Crickets.
All I'm hearing is "causation does not equal correlation" trope but clusters of unusual deaths are cause for scientific investigation.
Can anyone give me good news that this is shifting?
Other countries (outside the U.S.) are more advanced in their clinical trials and academic rigor. There has got to be a groundswell movement somewhere! Right?
In my local newspaper, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, comments are never allowed on any stories of younger people who died suddenly. The son of a former coach for the Minnesota Vikings passed a few days ago at age 38. No comments allowed because someone might wonder about his “vax” and booster status. Same with the woman who wrote the Julie & Julia blog that was the basis for a movie a few years ago. Died in her sleep at 49. No questioning allowed! These are just two cases. There have been many more. Anyone who goes of very old age, accident or known cause of death - comment away! Of course, none of the known causes are ever attributed to poisons from Moderna or Pfizer...
Exactly! The family of Illinois Congressman Sean Casten is sharing more details about how the representative's 17-year-old daughter died.
Gwen Casten was found dead in her room in June. At the time, her family said it appeared she had died in her sleep.
Casten's family released a statement Friday that Gwen Casten died of sudden cardiac arrhythmia.
"In layman's terms, she was fine, and then her heart stopped," the statement said.
In a statement, the Casten family said in part, "None of us know when our last heartbeat will come. The best we can hope for is that when our loved ones do pass, we will have no regrets about the time we were lucky enough to share. So hug the folks you love a little harder today. Be present in their lives. And spread your love a little farther. Because in the end, it's all that remains."
If it was my child, I would be publicizing the cause of death and warning other people about the side effects so more families wouldn’t have to go through this horrifying situation. It’s irresponsible not to do so.
Isn't that wild? 17 years old - in perfect health, active, great diet, no comorbidities. A U.S. Senator who is most likely devastated and whose voice could begin an investigation... yet, it's just "rare, but gosh, it can happen to anyone." I don't understand why these deaths are being swept under the carpet.
Apparently, the culprit is the lipid-protein coating the virus in the vax that is stimulating the adverse, devastating reactions. And yet...crickets.
No mention of how the funeral business has become yet another government contractor? FEMA still is paying for funerals if you agree to list Covid as the cause of death. Through 6/22 FEMA has paid for 406K funerals at a total cost of $2.6B. Yes, 2.6 BILLION.
A friend of mine was telling me about an active young man she knows that had several “mini heart attacks from the virus” but the family thought it was from the Pfizer vax... but very rare.
then later today I see a phizer FB ad saying get the vax if you have heart issues and about a million comments of different people saying they have heart issues from Covid. What the actual heck?!? Is Pfizer trying to convince people any issues are from Covid so get the vax? I wish I would have taken a screen shot.
The company line is that Covid causes heart problems. If they happen after a jab it’s just coincidence. They’ve successfully brainwashed many Covidians, at least judging from a few irritating conversations I have had.
I am certainly no expert on life insurance issues.
I did notice today after the close of a very disastrous overall stock market day that Lincoln National Insurance Company (LNC) reported their 3rd quarter numbers. They had to take some charges. Although some of it appeared to be increased charges from payouts for people dying, there were some other things going on as well. That is best left to an expert. I am just making an observation.
It was enough to tank the stock instantly almost 20%.
Alex, I do wonder how much of this life insurance situation also has to do with what you are reporting here.
What I get out of all this, is life insurance is taking a big hit because all/cause deaths are way up. Funeral homes are getting a big bonus because all-cause deaths are way up.
I recommend Dr John Campbell's YouTube Channel. Very measured and data driven. The UK numbers are clearest. Most worrying is how Canadian data, which use to be good, disappeared (Alex' used the Ontario data a few times).
Also - in my check up, my Doctor checked the Provincial Guidelines - I am not eligible for Plaxovid, and the new booster - not recommended. I'm 55Y, and in great shape. Our elderly Pediatrician, who worked in Africa and is a HUGE booster of vaccines, never pushed the mRNA.
This is a good article, Alex, but it's obviously climate change. No need for any investigations or anything!
The secret is out...climate change causes blood clots, sudden heart failure and super cancer.
Skipping breakfast increases heart attacks! And shoveling snow! And being lonely! Everything BUT the jab!
https://imgur.com/a/V3TAbrS
I stopped gardening altogether out of fear of prompting a heart attack.
Smart. Better to sit on your couch and order Doordash like government suggested.
me too, stopped going outside, the climate is a monster
Not if you wear a mask... when by yourself... especially in your car....
Fwiw, I suspect I caught Omicron from a biotrail outside. Shame on me; neglected to wear a mask in late December when practically all pollen was gone.
And yes, Air Force jets make the climate a monster.
LOL!
Don't forget flatulence...the stealthiest form of 'SILENT BUT DEADLY'. 👀😱☠️
Terminal Flatulence....TF....It's nothing to sniff at.
The last and final carbon fartprint.
More specifically it's cow flatulence driven climate change that's the cause of all our problems ;)
You guys are cracking me up
Burger King has been eekin' 'em out for a while! =D
In response I've taken to eating more beef. Heros eat beef. Protecting us from cow fart driven climate change.
Silly. But the best. Lol
Just channeling my inner Idiocracy. =0))
Wow. You should check out Gato's post this afternoon. Off the hook!
.......:))
They have a cure for that!
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/moderna-ceo-confirms-new-mrna-injection-repair-heart-muscles-after-heart-attack
How fortunate for everybody except the victim!
Yeah, I would trust that
I ate some peanut M&M's for breakfast. I'm doomed
If only climate could cause sudden death among certain elected officials...(sigh).
For some odd reason, it seems that most elected officials are immune from sudden death.
Why is that they were never injected. Or Saline was used
Funny that...
Colorado (R) State Rep. Hugh McKean 55, "died suddenly in his home" last Wednesday.
Was he grappling a hammer in his underwear? Cause that seems to lead to head injuries.
One those on one side are susceptible.
But quite susceptible to sudden stupidity
Nothing sudden about it, they've been stupid for decades!
Oh, its not sudden. Been around a long time for a certain ice cream slurping, stuttering demented pedophile angry man.
Yep! Pretty repulsive isn't he.
Only when they have a Dominion controlling the election results...
Not only does climate change not kill them, it doesn't affect their multi-million dollar mansions either, since they keep building on the coast.
Don’t forget potato chips and video games too!
I've been begging Alex, in comments, for months to make climate change his next target for investigation.
It's the same exact playbook.
If I ever get an elevator ride with RFK Jr, I'd love to ask him how he can be so lucid on vaccines and fall over the same exact rake with climate change!
There are numerous others with the chops to challenge the Greeners. No one has RFK's chops to challenge the vaccinators. He is doing the most good by staying in his lane, IMHO.
The point is that it's fascinating to me RFK can be so red-pilled about corruption, regulatory capture, scientific fraud, etc., when it comes to vaccines and so blue-pilled and naive when it comes to climate change, where the exact same tactics have been used.
So true! He can detail all the ways the fossil fuel industry is corrupt and for some he's convinced solar is going to be different.
Maybe cause climate change is real and covid was a scam.. oops am i in the far right area here?
No, it sounds like you're in propaganda land and don't realize how freaking stupid you sound.
"climate change is real"? Stop and think about that for a second.
Do you actually think that, without humans, the climate *wouldn't* change?
Climate change is real! Climate change is real!
Moron.
Is that your whole argument? Kinda easy to penetrate. Because the climate changes doesn't mean humans are not changing it. Logic right? But how much are they changing it, and more than that, if it is changing radically, how are we to prepare? Shit is happening. You have to be in denial and hang with others who are. Insects disappearing is one that freaks me out and i see it where i live. Massive dye off of many species. Midwest aquifers drying up. That's going to impact food production as if it isn't already impacted in many ways. It all might be a conspiracy of the elites, though many are a result of industrial civilization. That is the heart of the issue for conservative. Industrial civilization is under threat. Many believe we can go on like this for another century and thrive and they have to videos to prove it. Their biases draw them towards commentators who will tell them what they want. Full disclosure: we all do that. My bias is away from industrial civilization and towards a more ruralified life. But i'll support anyone who is against war and state authoritarianism.
Every prediction the "experts" have made on climate have all fallen flat. But, this time, of course they are right. Because, SCIENCE!!!
And you are right.. why? Cause you said it. That's all. That's all it takes and a group that echoes that back to ya.
There is such a thing as science you know. It's not that you can accept data one place and ignore it or manipulate it somewhere else. Conservatives want to go back to a time when it was okay to throw beer bottles out your window. I know. So finding like minded souls is not that hard in a dumbed down world.
Maybe he’s not…..
Yes and no - it's goes to his credibility. I've felt the exact same as Tommy stated above!
Agreed.
"You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."
Frankly, to speak cogently on any of these topics require in depth studying, and dealing intelligently with the whole climate change thing is a huge without any easy ask.
Heck, getting fluoride out of municipal water is a super easy ask, and we've been tilting at that windmill for decades. We might be about to get somewhere with it, but it has taken enormous effort.
Vaccinations are harder than fluoridation, but still has an easy ask.
Wireless radiation damage from Smart Meters, networks and devices is harder, but still something that needs urgent attention. Bobby is on that one, too, and it is related to Climate Change Greenwashing.
We need multiple leaders, not just Bobby, to deal with the corruption and regulatory capture.
I would recommend reading some works by Michael Shellenberger.
I second checking out Michael Shellenberger's Substack. He's doing excellent reporting and is worth supporting.
Exactly. RFK doesn't have much to add to Schellenberger's energy corpus except perhaps name recognition.
Okay.
Shellengerger gets debunked easily, but if that's your bias, go crazy.
I’ll look at it, I don’t want to be like the other side and ignore anything that doesn’t follow a narrative, but right now I believe the globalists are the biggest threat to this planet.
It’s the path to the holy grail. They hid it behind THREE traps. With a final test.
Why don’t you do it? I think what he has on his plate is more than ample for now. Better to do one thing well than to do a couple of things mediocrely. Mediocrity can’t be risked.
Because nobody cares what internet nobody me says. Tons of prominent people have tried breaking the veil on climate insanity.
Alex is a highly effective communicator, has a huge audience, and back to my original point, should be able to see the exact same playbook that was used during covid.
Look for some of Patrick Moore's videos (former director of Greenpeace) - he is the man on climate change. Also Bjorn Lomborg. These actual scientists have a ton of research into this scam - so why would Alex get in the middle of that?
https://rumble.com/v1dm5yr-fmr.-greenpeace-president-says-the-elites-have-a-suicide-pact-to-reduce-the.html

Because he's a journalist and that's what journalists do, especially ones with huge audiences and occasional access to even larger ones, like Rogan and Tucker. And, again, the parallels to COVID are very striking to me, so if he was interested in the COVID farse, I figure he'd be gob-smacked by the climate change cabal.
I'm well aware of all the wonderful doctors dispelling the nonsense on it. There have been plenty of doctors fighting against COVID, too. Why did Alex 'get in the middle of that'?
Sorry, I just don't get the argument.
I agree with you, all I am saying is, think of the enormity of all of this, it would be impossible to tackle it all at once, also there ARE many environmental problems, climate change from people isn’t one of them, there has always been climate change. It sure would be great if we could stop big industry from killing everything on earth though wouldn’t it? Many of the same evil doers are responsible for that too.
Of course there's always been climate change. But, there's a massive threat to liberty and our way of life from people demanding power to "fix" climate change. The political threat from climate change insanity is covid-like.
I know, agreed.
Plenty of Trumpers would jump right on that... what are you waiting for?
🎯🎯🎯
Perhaps RFK Jr only wants clean air and water, like most of us. And trees that provide so much to us.
Yeah nobody doesn't want clean air and water. But the proposed solutions - higher taxes, bigger government i.e. government control over every part of our lives, wiping out the cattle industry and replacing it with the insect industry, no more "fossil fuels" except in China, of course, -will lead to mass starvation and our way of life being decimated
I agree wholeheartedly...I hate all this carbon offset nonsense. I detest government interference...everywhere! There must be a way to "keep things clean" without all the shenanigans.
Great point re JFK. I have noticed less climate rhetoric from his organisation recently. Perhaps he might be getting it.
But climate change didn't affect mortality until 2021, oddly...
BECAUSE TRUMP, CAROLYN!
If I have to explain this to you again, I'm going to be forced to sign you up for re-education.....uh......which is of course wonderful and totally not a thing you would be forced into!
Donald Trump was the catalyst needed to really boost climate change, obviously.
Once he was out of office, he was able to personally smuggle the classified files for our weather-changing program to Putin, who finally gave Trump the pee tape.
CASE CLOSED.
It was given to Trump via Hunter Biden's laptop. Naturally.
I don't think that's what happen. A Russian Secret Agent, let's call him Yuri, brought a laptop into a repair shop in Wilmington, DE and he pretended to be Hunter Biden. On the laptop were incriminating photos of Hunter Biden sniffing coke off of prostitutes' rear-ends. This was all part of the Russian disinformation campaign. No one knows how or why the Russians would do this. It's believed that the file on this secret operation is part of the National Archives and it was at Trump's mar-a-lago and is now in the hands of the FBI. We all know that Trump is a Russian spy and according to the women on The View, he's also a liar and a thief.
The US did have excess deaths in 2020 also but not due to any unique epidemiological event.
In 2020 the excess can mainly be attributed to the mass medical murders in nursing homes and hospitals and the impacts of lockdowns and social dislocation.
Here's the exact data:
United States reported 3,353,787 deaths, for the 52 weeks of year 2020 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,920,345. That is an increase of +433,442 deaths (+14.8%).
United States reported 3,457,517 deaths for the 52 weeks of year 2021 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,947,287. That is an increase of +510,230 deaths (+17.3%).
Year to date, United States reported 2,548,784 deaths for the 41 weeks of year 2022 (all years of age). Expected deaths were 2,338,304. That is an increase of +210,480 deaths (+9.0%).
Very good question. When I look at CDC weekly all cause deaths it looks pretty flat & about normal. USA about 60,000 deaths/week. Is the claim that pandemic deaths were so high that we should be much lower & "normal" means excess deaths?
See for yourself: Look under export for csv files

Wait, SimulationCommander is Greta Thunberg? I do have to admit, I've never seen them in a room together...
HOW DARE YOU
Greta, doesn't Klaus need help getting out of his thong?
oh my god i just threw up a little
Totally disgusting and uncalled for. That mental picture will stay with me for days.🤢🤮
"How dare you!"
I thought climate change caused semi-fascism and bitter clinging. Or does bitter clinging and semi-fascism cause climate change? Oh, so confusing.
Does the thermometer go in the North Pole or the South Pole?

You have to smell it first to tell where it belongs.
Wait,what!, you must be a gender denier.
Well, both the vaccines and climate change are all about following the $¢ien¢e.
You are right in one way but 'Following the science' was used to shut down any discussion on covid. It's a bit like saying 'Doing what's best for the children'. Who could possibly disagree?
Trouble is, real 'science' can only exist if it is challenged and tested. As for climate change, I would suggest first we need to get rid of the billions of dollars of fossil fuel subsidies to even up the field.
Well I just read last week from the main stream media that the unvaccinated are causing the vaccinated to have heart attacks and blood clots due to the stress they cause them.
What's funny is I heard one reason the virus mutates so much is because its trying to fool the vaccine. So in a sense, the vaccines create mutants strains of covid.
Right. And yet those media aholes aren't smart enough to realize (or they know their consumers are too stupid to figure out) that ONLY the jabbed are dying of stress. The purebloods aren't having heart attacks and blood clots from the "stress" of being dehumanized for not taking the experimental drug, from the stress of being ostracized, from the stress of losing their jobs.
Funny that ONLY the jabbed are dying from stress. Gee, I wonder what's different between the jabbed and the unjabbed...
I was going to say it’s Trump fault obviously
I'm pretty sure TheRussianz® are to blame as well.
Breaking news.....The Russians to blame for climate change! They're probably trying to thaw out Siberia so they'd be able to grow their own food to feed their people.
THE BASTARDS!
Putin is really Cobra Commander and he has finally perfected weather dominator technology.
No, not climate change. It was Jan 6th and Russian Collusion. Trump is definitely behind all of this.
That's nothin'! Trump was the mastermind behind the Kennedy (both of them) AND Lincoln assassinations.
He's THAT evil!
We already got to the bottom of this below.

CASE CLOSED.
And a LOT of people are braking too hard in traffic. Easy on that pedal, folks! You don't want to encourage that blood clot!
Ha! New PSA: "Ease up on the breaks for climate change causing blood clots" Tiny print: [This message sponsored by Pfizer and the CDC and Clown World].
SC, My, but you have a lot on your mind today. I am constantly befuddled at the apparent outright dismissal of Climate Change on these predominantly US stacks.
I am under no illusions that the same nefarious evil psychos behind the scamdemic have not hijacked the climate agenda for their own gains.
But that does not make it fundamentally untrue.
I have studied the issue extensively for over four years to the same extent as the current scamdemic. What is your opinion based on? We're all experiencing the power of propaganda and mass psychosis.
There are huge powerful forces on both sides of this argument and the deniers only have to create the slightest doubt. Ultimately one side is right and one side is wrong. The stakes couldn't be higher. We've never trashed the whole planet before, so maybe keep an open mind, at least for now?
I'd start by asking what you mean by "dismissal of Climate Change", because recognizing the vacuity of that statement might help orient things.
Does climate change mean the climate changes? Because nobody would disagree with that. It's the strawman of strawmen.
Or, does it mean, *predicted* catastrophic increases in temperature (literally) decades from now is causing every weather calamity that befalls us today and that the only way to relieve your anxiety over that is to give massive amounts of money and power to Democrats so they implement policies they've always wanted to implement, which will solve climate change, hurray! (Even though China and India are still going to be emitting massive amounts of CO2 that dwarf anything the US is doing today, but don't pay attention to that).
Tommy, Thanks for responding. I suspect this is not the place to discuss this as it is off-topic but it is so often treated as a joke here.
What I mean is man-made climate change, caused by emitting Gigatons of greenhouse gases which warm the planet.
The global temperature has already risen by 1.2 degrees, 2-3 times more in the Arctic, and we are already experiencing more extreme and more frequent weather events all around the world.
It transcends political parties of any country and national borders by definition - it's global. To give us any chance of mitigating and reducing the effects we all have to systematically change otherwise we will be doomed as our life support systems collapse. And 'decades from now' is still within the expected lifetime of my children.
A famous British comedian did a sketch on climate, recycling etc. He said he used to follow the rules until he went to the state's - and thought WTF! It got a big laugh. Here in UK we only contribute to 1% globally but we all need to do our bit because if it isn't already too late we are in borrowed time.
There is SO much green washing and governmental and corporate crap spouted by both sides - but it doesn't stop the main central threat being true: the planet is warming and we are the cause. Peace.
I don't see any reason this conversation shouldn't be had here, as you are apparently learned and Tommy is willing to engage. I'd happily hear you both out and see if I can learn something new.
Why thank you Unset009. I'm feeling a little battered so appreciate your support.
We're much much closer to freezing to death than dying of heat.
You might be locally, but this is global. Other parts of the world e.g. parts of India, are periodically approaching wet bulb status = too hot to sustain human life.
But it's not just about getting hotter per se, it's the effect on all the weather patterns and extremes, of heat, cold, drought, flood, wind etc.
The same is true globally. Canada and Russia, for example.
The global temperature has risen by 1.2 degrees *since when*? Temperatures have been mostly flat for the last 20 years and are no warmer in the US than they were in the 1930s or 1940s.
We are NOT experiencing more extreme and more frequent weather events. You can read Dr. Pielke's dismantling of that. But, more importantly, a mild 1.2 degrees of warming back to where we were 80 years ago wouldn't cause it anyway. You have been tricked into thinking the catastrophic warming doomsayers are predicting years from now, and which they say will cause more extreme weather, is actually causing more extreme weather today. It's not entirely your fault. If you read articles about a hurricane or whatever, they say things like, "this is what we can expect from climate change".
But, you don't get the catastrophic fallout from unprecedented warming without...unprecedented warming.
The question of whether more CO2 will warm the planet is the question, so if you just go ahead and assert that's the case, that's literal question begging. Have you ever asked yourself, has CO2 been higher than it is today? Have temperatures been higher? What happened to life on the planet then? How well have the models being used to predict global warming done at predicting the last 20 years?
You haven't even begun to scratch the surface of the arguments against this nonsense.
It's already happening. The arctic is increasingly melting and global weather patterns are changing fast.
The weather, ie day to day temperatures, is not the same as global temperature. It's a different caclulation.
CO2 is not the only greenhouse gas - methane is much, much worse and is also rising fast. Siberia is thawing!
Of course the climate models are inaccurate - we haven't done this before - it may not be linear. There could be catastrophic tipping points.
Of course the global temperature has previously been much higher and CO2 many times higher, but not when 7 billion humans have basically taken over the whole world.
We are apparently using the resources of 1.7 planets. It is completely unsustainable and we ignore it at our peril.
I have spent years studying this with global experts who I believe are comparable in intellect and knowledge with the amazing people who have saved us here from the nonsense of covid.
Either they are all wrong, I am an idiot and you are right, or perhaps just maybe it deserves some more of your time. Peace
Setting aside the research showing weather events aren't getting more severe, you just said the global temperature has risen by 1.2 degrees (you declined to say since when). Satellite data show warming trends of 0.13 degree per decade since the late 70s. *That's not nearly enough to cause the extreme weather of CAGW*. Temperatures haven't accelerated, they've mostly flatlined the last 20 years. If whether events have gotten more extreme, it's in spite of it not warming, not because it has been warming.
The arctic is NOT increasingly melting. It has gained ice for the past decade: https://notrickszone.com/2022/07/26/climatologists-embarrassed-increase-in-global-co2-levels-accompanied-by-arctic-sea-ice-growth/. Ice extent is about what it was in the 40s. The dishonest media will show you trends from the late 70s, which was a highpoint.
If the models are inaccurate, then there's no basis to believe global warming theory because the whole theory is built on models, feedback cycles, and parameter tuning. If you'd studied for years with experts, you would probably know that.
The whole bit about "humans taking over the world" to dismiss the fact that temperatures and CO2 have been much higher without consequence is quite a non sequitur.
I am not impressed by your experts, just as I wasn't impressed with the COVID experts. We know how that turned out. Like the COVID experts, they shunned, shamed, mocked, etc., dissenting voices. Like COVID, climate change is a massive propaganda campaign. You believe outright lies and absurdities and can't break out of the nonsense to see it.
The simple fact is that we're over carrying capacity for the planet with the no of people and our lifestyles.
Onw immediate challenge is that it takes 10-12 calories of FF to generate 1 calorie of food. FF are in decline and No, EVs aren't going to run Industrial Ag. Other challenges include that various ecosystems are f--d.
A lot of us will be exiting earlier than expected whichever way you look at it. However the globalist crowd would like to see us exit even sooner than the natural decline and collapse process entails.
Welcome Fred, I was getting pretty lonely and battered here on my own.
That's not a "simple fact". It's an opinion, and one that people have had for centuries. They've *all* been wrong in part because they radically underestimate human ingenuity.
125 years ago, a major concern was overcrowding in cities and what to do with all the horse manure. People were worried about how they'd light their homes when whale oil ran out. They worried about running out of firewood, and then they worried about running out of coal.
The US is sitting on an ocean of natural gas. Known Uranium deposits could power the entire world for thousands of years. A nuclear + hydrogen economy would power us for millenia. Can you imagine what could be invented in that period of time?
Goto Our World in Data and look at crop yields over the last 50 years. It's amazing, and we're probably just getting started.
You literally live in the most prosperous era in the history of human kind and you worry like this? One thing that could bring us down are idiot politicians and their coercive programs of scarcity and warfare, like they've been doing for thousands of years.
Hi Tommy, I often think of the whale oil example, and the fact that we were almost the cause of whales going extinct. We always seem to exploit everything to destruction - look at tuna and sharks today...
I also think of wars in the same way: in days of yore two men with swords could only kill each other. Now two men could blow up the whole planet.
We have moved on with our capacity for mass destruction and the thing is with the planet's systems is that by the time the effects become apparent it will be too late to do anything about it.
I agree with your point on our capacity to invent when needed, yet still we do stupid things - and all for money. Look at Hydrogen, you can make it the green way (solar) or the blue way (natural gas) which have hugely different CO2 implications. And which way do you think Australia are making it? (Sorry, no prizes.)
And every time the crops yields rise (usually destroying the soil and all insect life with chemicals - like glyphosate) the world's population increases and makes all the other problems even worse.
Totally agree we need a new power source - and Now! Peace.
I think you should read up a bit on how toxic and destructive wind and solar are. They're terrible technologies, not the least bit "green".
But, as we've already covered, I don't think CO2 is a problem at all. It's a colorless, harmless, gas to animals and a fertilizer to plants. It's maddening, but after the decades of propaganda, it's probably unlikely to red-pill anyone about how silly the CAGW idea is.
There are two fundamental problems with this Malthusian world view you guys seem to have. The first is, you've mostly forgotten or never learned about the existential crisis humans used to face, because those problem have been solved and we generally don't think about solved problems. Two guys with a sword is a nice euphemism for what was, in reality, the equivalent idea that a marauding army could destroy what you considered to be your whole world. The second problem is that the solution to our current problems are in the future and as yet unknown. So, past solutions are forgotten or diminished and future solutions aren't apparent, so you're heavily biased toward despair.
Your fears about 'planet systems', etc, are bordering on neurotic. It hasn't happened before, certainly not due to CO2, and it's not happening now outside of computer models built by scientists funded by people who want you to believe in CAGW. It is thoroughly corrupt.
The world's population has already peaked. It's far more likely our biggest problems in 30 years will be due to the demographic shift of too few young people and too few old people. Japan may not even exist in 50 years because of it.
Tommy, Tommy, Tommy... I'm really enjoying our 'chat' - Thank you. I do hope you're not an Agent Provocateur? I don't consider myself neurotic at all - I just read lots and try and process stuff. I try to keep an open mind as much as possible: is there really anything such as Truth?
I respond:
CO2 was 280ppm pre industrial revolution, 350ppm by the time I was born and is now 415ppm - it's going up. And so is methane. Apparently levels have been massively higher in the past and this is our sixth extinction level event.
(I watched something once where this scientist was saying without CO2 the earth would be 30 degrees cooler so we do need it. I listen to both sides)
Are you saying that the Arctic isn't warming two to three times faster than the rest of the planet and the Albedo effect of open water is wrong? have you heard of Peter Wadham? 50 years experience of measuring the ice - well I believe him.
'Two guys with swords' - can now destroy the whole earth - our impact is different now. And there are 5 billion more of us; billions with energy rich lifestyles.
Nobody knows if the world population has peaked because you can't count what hasn't happened yet, it might change again. I know about Japan's problems (we may read some of the same stuff). The changing demographic is largely economic, not environmental. I'm sure the world would benefit from fewer of us (but naturally - not eugenics)
I fully appreciate the climate models will be inaccurate (look at the covid ones...) and that the evil ones have taken over the agenda - but that doesn't mean 'something' is not happening.
I don't know what it is (we are only as good as what we read or hear), it might be CO2, or the Grand Solar Minimum or Milankovitch Cycles or entirely natural - I have no idea.
BUT - things ARE changing. Even where I live I have noticed it increasingly for years; the seasons are later and less defined, the weather regularly gets stuck, we get extremes of wet and dry etc.
It didn't rain for six weeks in the summer and there was hardly ever even a breeze (we live right on the coast) it was SO hot I had to stay indoors day after day. Now it is November and we have most of the leaves still on the trees and roses in full bloom - it shouldn't be like this.
The idea that government even knows what the 'optimum' temperature of Earth is -- that's dubious.
The idea that government can get and keep the planet there with enough power and money -- that's pants-on-head stupid.
If the climate warriors were serious about the issue, they would endorse nuclear power.
Nuclear power is the Ivermectin of climate change
If not Hydroxychloriquine?
Yes to both
The obvious solution is more communism.
YM has just hit the jackpot. Because more communism always results in deaths of millions and millions of people and the fewer people we have then the less global warming - all those people fart methane and exhale CO2, dontchaknow. Communism and tyranny is the solution to global warming. Goodness, if we gave people freedom to go where they want how they want eating what they want and making more people as much as they want we'll all soon be dead!! Better to kill a significant subset of us now to avoid that!!
There are a great many people here who think that covid and the vaccines were created precisely as a means to reduce global population - they're well into killing millions already.
No communists required.
On the other hand, climate breakdown and a collapse of all our life support systems, like being able to grow enough food, transcends any and all political systems, including communism. Peace
The earth has been stable for about the last 10,000 years which has allowed us to flourish. It is now warming - fast.
I agree that govt response is piecemeal and totally inadequate. A total waste of time and money. They are relying on unicorn technologies which don't exist yet - and we are running out of time.
I agree that we desperately need nuclear as a transition fuel, despite it's potential dangers and drawbacks. The wind doesn't always blow or the sun shine.
Personally I think it is already too late and we are totally f*cked. The changes take years to kick in and take effect.
The only thing that could possibly save us is cold fusion or maybe green hydrogen, if they can be developed quickly enough to scale.
But first we have to be honest about the size of the existential crisis.
Let me address each of your points.
* The earth has not been stable for the last 10,000 years. The Laurentide Ice Sheet still covered much of Canada and a significant portion of the northern US 10,000 years ago and we have been in an interglacial warming period since then, resulting in significant changes in weather patterns, flora and fauna, and sea levels until present.
* You argue that the Government response to changing climate has been piecemeal and inadequate and a total waste of time and money. Wouldn't a larger and more coordinated response by a bunch of morons like John Kerry just be a greater waste of time and money. The technologies the Gov is relying on are wind, solar and batteries. No unicorns involved, just very low energy density, intermittent, expensive and completely inadequate to modern life.
* Nuclear is, by many orders of magnitude, the most energy dense source we have to chose from, and it has by far the best safety track record of any industrial process on the planet. It is not a transition fuel, it is the endgame to maintianing our energy intesive quality of life.
* As for timing of being f*cked or not, climate change happens over hundreds if not thousands of years. The Dutch somehow figured out how to live under sea level using late middle age (1200-1500) tecnology, and the Inuit and Beduin figured out how to live in completely inhospitable environments using stone age technology. I think we can figure out how to adapt with our current state of tech.
* You obviously know virtually nothing about energy technology if you think cold fusion or green hydrogen are somehow the only possible solutions.
* Let's be honest the only existential crisis is that power hungry elitists want to play god under the guise of $¢ien¢e and are willing to destroy our way of life to get their way.
Hi Big Tex, Something you said, 'you obviously know virtually nothing about energy technology'. Maybe I don't, compared to you, but it's probably unfair and generally not nice to just assume.
So, you like nuclear? Here's some of what I know in UK. Hope you find it interesting.
In the UK we have had massive under investment in energy apart from wind for decades. We used to be world leaders in nuclear - the expertise is all gone. We have three new plants under construction, they are already years late, £ billions over budget and still not expected to produce power for at least a decade. One is being built with French company EDF (80% state owned and effectively bankrupt). Their reactor design has not yet been made to work - they are building another one in Finland of the same design which is even more overdue and has not yet worked.
Another of the plants is being built with Chinese money - I wonder how that is panning out. Again, huge problems and delays - I wonder if any of them will ever produce anything.
Meanwhile, we have a huge old nuclear plant, Sizewell B, which has been closed for years and will cost £ billions to decommission (which we haven't got) and take forever - they just keep it stable. (One downside of nuclear)
The French have found cracks in many of their reactors and have had to close them down. The Germans have closed all theirs for political reasons - Greens in charge Now they have no Russian gas (daft idea to depend on it!) they are even destroying villages to get at their Lignite - the filthiest of coals.
The UK is set to close the remainder of its coal powered stations by 2025. Can't see it happening, but if it does we will be left with next to nothing - like the Germans now.
Meanwhile, we have Drax Power Station: it runs on wood pellets shipped from The States and is subsidised with £ billions from the UK tax payer whose energy bills are inflated by a green levy of 25%. It is the biggest emitter of CO2 in the country but the emissions do not even figure on the UK CO2 stats because it is considered carbon neutral! It is the biggest load of political bollocks ever!! Now they are destroying prime Canadian forests to feed the furnaces (but what do they care - look at their tar sands: a total ecological disaster). They have/are in the process of installing two new huge gas turbines at Drax with space for a carbon capture plant (which of course doesn't exist at scale - they built a huge one in Australia - a complete failure).
Whilst I'm on: You also mentioned salt? I assume you mean molten salt? What's that huge plant in US desert with all the mirrors which I think was built to keep the lights on in places like Vegas? Apparently huge problems with corrosion due to salt and also is now twice the energy price of alternatives - another mothballed white elephant.
We are ALL in a BIG mess! Meanwhile energy demand just grows and grows... Peace
I do apologize for the "know virtually nothing" comment. I spent a career financing energy infrastructure around the world and get a bit passionate and perhaps dogmatic about the topic of energy policy and technology. I agree that there are issues with the timing and cost of new build nuke plants, but much of that is due to over zealous regulators. Also, agree that there are issues with the aging nuclear fleet of light water reactors, but there are maintenance fixes to these issues and new reactor designs present longer term solutions.
Well this is getting good. Thank you for engaging. I respond:
When I say stable I mean able to support human life.
When I say unicorn technology I mean carbon capture and storage. It appears to be their favourite dream.
Nuclear - why not cold fusion too? It apparently had none of the downsides. Though I read that the new model fission plants are better than the old ones. There may well be other options, but where are they? We need them now!
We don't know the timescales of Climate Change. if major tipping points are reached it could spin into overdrive very quickly.
And the planet's population was apparently about 2 billion until we started burning fossil fuels - now over 7 billion which requires much more of everything. And most of us are urban - with no clue of how to survive.
Totally agree the elites have hijacked the agenda. They are so pompous and dumb to think they can control it whilst maintaining their position.
Good to talk. Peace
Cornwall, always happy to engage in conversation on some of my favorite topics. I respond to your response:
* The first known hominids date to approximately 6 million years ago. Over the course of that 6 million years the earth has experienced cyclic heating and cooling periods with a total temperature range of more than 10 degrees c, but generally trending toward cooling. Hominid (let's say human) life was able to survive and thrive under such variable conditions without the benefit of air conditioning or anitbiotics (getting back to the Covid part of the thread).
* I agree that CCS is a silly unicorn "technology" that will ultimately be abandoned after spending billions.
* Cold fusion is at best theoretical and more likely science fiction. Hot fusion like the Tokamak reactor design requires such a high energy input to start the reaction and to contain it that the scientific goal to date has just been to achieve break-even. The best result to date has been 16Mw of output to 24Mw of input, in spite of multi-decade international joint efforts like ITER. It would take far more space for me to cover all of the details surrounding Nuclear (fission) than is appropriate for a Covid thread, but here is something to think about. Most of our thinking about nuclear is based on 1950's and 1960's technology and clouded by visions of nuclear warfare, potential runaway reaction disaster, and long lived waste disposal issues. The current state of the technology addresses each of the proliferation, safety and waste issues. If all of the clouds of history were erased, and space aliens handed us the blueprints to the currently available technologies, we would embrace it as a gift from god.
* Tipping points are the climate "science" equivalent to the Covid fear porn that was used to control the populace. Nothing happens quickly or irreversably in a climate the scale of ours. Notice that it is always geniuses like Al Gore, John Kerry, AOC, Greta Thunberg and the whole WEF cabal pushing the threat of our imminent demise to do big things now. Doing big things now = consolidating political power and money.
* All I will say about population growth is that, in spite of nonstop Malthusian predictions otherwise, humankind has been able to thrive and prosper while growing from 2 bln to 7+bln. The quality of life of the lowest 10% of the current population is better than that of the top 1% before we started burning fossil fuels. I am no Pollyanna, but I have great confidence in our ability to innovate and adapt. The greatest fear I have is the avarice of the political class and the dangers they pose through war and other massive misallocation of resources.
Peace to you my friend.
Why not cold fusion? Cold fusion doesn't exist.
But, we do have things like molton salt thorium and other modern nuclear designs that are ignored by the people who claim there's an existential crisis, yet mysteriously avoid solving it. As I said in a different fork, modern nuclear is the Ivermectin (or HCQ) of climate change. It's the solution everyone avoids because they don't want a solution, and that says a lot.
Except, you're not allowed to say that because they use the same tactics as they have with COVID -- people who depart from the orthodoxy are silenced. And, that says a lot, too.
Which is why I started this thread.

"GOP control would give the libertarian doctor — an outspoken critic of the government’s coronavirus policies — the power to lead investigations and help set legislative priorities."

Long funeral companies and short life insurance companies. I don't make the rules.
Grim tho it may be, I bought some SCI stock during the depths of the Atrocities, when it became obvious what was coming... and it's doing well. Same with STON (Stonemor Inc), another funeral company.
Two things you can count on, death and taxes. And by extension, funeral homes and government.
Life insurance companies are just gonna have to start cancelling policies.
So life insurance companies and funeral home companies tell the truth. Got it. As always, follow the money.
Yes. We’re waiting for the 2022 numbers from life insurance actuaries. How long will these companies tolerate elevated payouts?
As long as the government keeps paying them to. You don’t suppose they aren’t getting federal subsidies of some sort to cover their losses, do you? I bet they’re buried somewhere in the CARES act.

I have read that morticians are discovering weird, several-foot long, blood clots in the corpses they are embalming. The unexplained-death rate, according to the Alberta, Canada government has gone up astronomically. Yeah, yeah, correlation isn't causation. But the covid vaccines have to be under suspicion as the culprit.
My niece is an autopsy assistant. She is seeing lots of Fentenyl deaths but her dad is a Mortician and definitely the morticians are seeing those bizarre long clots.
It's not paranoid to suspect there's something happening here.
I am thinking the same. I'm not a MAGA-maniac, but I really suspect the CDC of pushing a lot of nonsense, and I'm not sure why they are doing that. The vaccine for kids is just stupid. Nobody thinks that's good idea except the CDC.
"why they are doing that"...is because the pharma industry underwrites them and the CDC brings in millions this way in addition to investing in medical patents aligned with pharma
HOw are they going to meet their 90% population reduction without vaxxxxxines?
And 70-80% of children will be sterilized! The Eugenics crowd is having mass hysteria just thinking how many people will be removed from the Earth. This alone will make Earth much better for the 10% who survive.
Once the vaxxxxines were approved for children, no testing needed-automatically approved for EVERYBODY with NO liability. Now go down and get your entire family vaxxxed and boosted. It's the right thing to do to save the Earth.
For those who don't make it, heart failure caused by myocarditis will be quick, with massive heart failure many are dead before they hit the ground. You won't feel a thing.

Big fan of Berenson. Nice for a journalist to do journalism, not just spew propaganda.
Inquisitive mind?
Thanks for the heads up. I believe spell check changed my typing.
Absolutely true
Pfizer ( yes, that Pfizer) reported a 29% year over year increase in sales of their cardiomyopathy drug Vyndaqel, and a 15% year over year increase in their anticoagulant (blood clot) drug Eliquis. The money doesn't lie, so what does it signify? https://dossier.substack.com/p/the-pfizer-way-produce-the-sickness?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=69009&post_id=82011662&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email
dark, but unsettlingly accurate
Embarrassed to say I saw this coming a year ago and bought a little SCI.
LOL!
At least we now know, if we have some money left, where to invest it
The company’s share price spiked suddenly
“Spiked”….”Suddenly”…😉😉
They want people to die. Sick bastards.
a healthy society is just not a good business model for Pharma. Create the problem provide the "only" options as perceived solution "grounded in science" (tis tis) such as high priced patented medications and voila! A pipeline of ongoing profits. Rinse and repeat. Just sayin...
Sounds like the script from the Three Stooges episode “Pest Man Wins” where as exterminators, they purposely infest a house with vermin then knock on front door asking if the owners need pest control.
🎯🎯🎯

Completely obvious it is the vaccine. Anyone who ignores it is immoral.
or a moron
Embrace the power of 'and'!
It could be worse - it could be the virus itself, with or without the vaccine. (I'm unvaxxed btw)
I know 3 people who have died suddenly in their sleep in the last 2 weeks. One I know was after a combined flu/CoVid booster and another after the booster. Not sure on the 3rd. I’ve never experienced that before. This is more than the number of people I directly know that died from CoVid
",,,we were lied to from the beginning. I don’t believe this has been a novel cause of illness and death other than our governments’ responses to the fake pandemic.... They’ve lied about the public health emergency, they’ve lied about the necessity and usefulness of the measures, and they’ve lied about the design, research, development, and use of these so-called vaccines..." - Dr. Michael Yeadon

PREMEDITATED MASS MURDER:
https://lionessofjudah.substack.com/p/premeditated-mass-murder-alarming
I'm sure the untested mRNA has caused many deaths, cancer cases and other health issues. We know ACM is way up in 25-45. I'd be curious to see the 2022 birth rates with all the female and male reproduction issues the mRNA has caused that we continue to hear about I wonder if we are up or down from previous years?
2021 birth rates were up compared with 2020 but lower than 2019.
Birth rate SHOULD be up due to extended lockdowns…..
But it’s not
Or birth rates could be down due to the promotion of, and easy access to, the abortion pill
Edward Dowd has been on this for awhile. It got him booted off of Twitter. You have to go to Gettr to the get the details now.
"Crisis as excess deaths soar to levels higher than the Covid pandemic" Headline from The Telegraph today. Excess deaths are running 13% above normal in England and Wales according to the ONS compared to 2019. Non Covid excess deaths are three times higher than Covid deaths (Or deaths with Covid). And the explanation from doctors....Delayed or skipped medical treatments. I recall reading about two doctor strikes in the 1960s in Israel and California. The death rates dropped in both cases. I am not buying the delayed or skipped medical treatment argument.
You need to compare excess deaths in highly vaccinated countries to almost entirely non-vaccinated as in Africa. I think we can guess the results.
Somehow nobody does that analysis. I wonder why?
Yep, I wonder why.
The numbers are good, but not good enough... so we'll just have to have another war... this time a really, Really, REALLY BIG one... One so big that it will make WWII look like a junior varsity team tryout.
I don't think so. Another release of a bioweapon will do the trick. And nobody will try to trace the origin so nobody will pay the price for their evil.
We seem to lack a conscience of opinion on the weapons that will be used in the next global conflict... as far a s "nobody will try to trace the origin"... let's see what the consequences of our bio-labs may turn out to be in Ukraine before we discount any accountability.
Gotta disagree with doctors and hospitals functioning normally. In rural areas (where I am a healthcare provider), the system broke and was never fixed. Doctors refused to see sick people in person (still to this day, they make them do telehealth if they feel I’ll and as anyone actually practices medicine will tell you, you need to lay hands on a patient to properly diagnose them). Students graduated never having been properly trained in their finally years of residency. Smaller hospitals and clinics are closing. Older practitioners are still retiring earlier than they had planned further exacerbating a significant shortage of both primary care and specialty care, especially in underserved areas like where I live and work. The level of care never went back to pre-Covid and continues to worsen. I’m not saying the vaccines have nothing to do with the higher than expected mortality rates. I am saying that the harms from those vaccines combine with the failure of the healthcare system to rebound fully is contributing to the higher than anticipated mortality rates.
Here in WA we're still suffering the effects of the 10% drop in hospital capacity from Jay Inslee's stupid mandates. Nationwide the drop seems about the same. Remember when we had to do all this to ensure that hospitals weren't overrun?
It was always a joke. Anyone who has worked in medicine (and is honest) knows this. The private practices were gobbled up by large corporations and/or hospitals. Now, the doctors aren’t in charge. That puts in charge the idiot administrators, none of whom ever treat a patient or look someone in the eye to tell them they will die from a tumor that would have been diagnosed earlier and treatable even ten years ago. The system was not working well before Covid. After Covid, it is broken except maybe for those in large urban areas and those with means to access the care. For those of us up here in the sticks, we are forgotten.
This was the plan of Obamacare and that plan is working.
very true. The fact that the docs all work for hospitals or insurance companies or academia means that they are controllable. If they don’t do what the idiot admins direct them to do (recommend vaccines for all, for instance), they can be fired and become unemployable. This is a feature of Obamacare, not a bug
Yes! All the incentives have 'encouraged' bureaucratic control over health care. IMO whoever can invent an Uber-like that summons a doctor when you're sick (Housecall style!) is gonna be a billionaire.
Healthcare occurs between you and your doctor. Every middleman piled between the two of you simply drives up cost and reduces effectiveness.
Yes! We need to return to the days when the patient is the boss and the doctor is the employee of the patient. With that relationship, the doctor needs to do right by the patient. The patient is their number one focus. The system is so warped right now because the doctor doesn’t work for the patient anymore. Now the doctor works for the hospital or the clinic or the insurance. So, their primary focus is to make those entities happy. They no longer have the incentive to make the patient happy. And forget about taking good care of your patients to build a good reputation to attract more patients. Now, the patient has to see whoever the insurance or the hospital or the clinic dictates they see.
They get bonuses fir certain diagnoses, like depression ad anxiety.
Exactly describes what happened where I live. Multiple rural hospitals closed. I just read an article about the nearest one only having 1 ER doc on the weekends now and you will wait 10 hours or so.
Up here in rural NY, we don't even have ER doctors anymore. They are all NPs and PAs. While I strongly believe that there is a place for NPs and PAs in healthcare, they should not be the only provider available in an emergency room. Our closest ER with actual real doctors is over an hour away.
Further complicating the issue is that the primary care practices here won't see patients who are sick. They tell them to go to the ER for things that are not emergent. The doctors and their staff don't want to stay late or miss lunch. Since they are salaried employees of the hospital, they have no incentive to stay late or to see more patients. They get paid the same, so why would they want to do more work? We have a severe shortage of good primary medicine which ends up overrunning the emergency room with nonsense that the primary guys should be dealing with.
Even five years ago things were not this bad. COVID broke a system already in decline and this clearly is leading to increased morbidity and mortality.
NE PA here. Our closest is almost an hour also. I never want to have to go, but now I truly and actively dread it. My daughter gets all kinds of hell when I see her messing around on her horse too much! I know I did way more but there were hospital visits involved lol
Just went to Mass for All Souls’ Day at my church. I have never seen so many candles lit and so many names called for my congregation. It’s has to be no less than 25% more than normal.
My Canadian nonagenarian grandmother who has been very vocal and people not doing the right thing and getting the vaccines told me in her last email that 5 of her friend recently got diagnosed with cancer and she’s never seen anything like it
Idk if I’m gonna mention it…
Agree. The list was published at mass on Sunday. It was stunning. 😢
(Unfortunately) this was completely predictable based on the "gold standard" randomized clinical trial results. The Pfizer RCT had at least 17% excess non-COVID deaths with vaccination (14 vaccine vs. 12 placebo- they reported even worse numbers elsewhere), and the Moderna RCT had 15% excess non-COVID deaths (15 vaccine vs 13 placebo).
Of course, even during the height of the pandemic these RCTs showed absolutely no lives saved overall by the vaccines because these increases in non-COVID deaths completely offset the reductions in COVID deaths. But now that a) COVID deaths have been steady near record lows for months, due to many things: the wide availability of Paxlovid which actually works unlike the vaccines, natural immunity, less severe variants, etc, and b) the vaccines have been hugely ineffective even at preventing COVID deaths for about a year, the vaccine is essentially ALL risk and NO benefit at the present time.
IVM works better than Paxlovid in every metric. No rebound, far fewer drug interactions, simply more effective overall. And cheaper.
I agree it was an atrocious crime against humanity that IVM was suppressed and millions died needlessly around the world. And I would personally prefer to take IVM+FLCCC protocols rather than Paxlovid. But given that IVM is nearly impossible to get nowadays, I think our side should still admit that Paxlovid saves lives (for the minority of people who need it) while the mRNA vaccines kill more than they save.
Check out Alldaychemist dot com. India based, I’ve gotten both IVM and HCQ from them.
Doctors are baffled at this rise in mortality but even Inspector Clouseau could figure it out.
Well, that’s sudden and unexpected.
cause unknown!
Just baffling!
Actually, considering that covid plus all the wrong medical decisions like ventilators Remsdevir, lockdowns, etc would have cleared away alot of, um, deadwood, ( i.e. those that were probably going to die, did, but we also pushed many, many more less frail people off the cliff too), one would reasonably expect recent mortality to be much less than 2019.
the drug companies will lie to you, the public health bureaucrats will lie to you, the government will lie to you. the stock market and insurance actuaries will never lie. for them it's dollars
I wonder if Paul Pelosi, Hunter or Fauci put any money on Service Corporation before the big numbers showed up. Maybe we should check with the SEC or some other watchdog.
Kyrie eleison
How does this compare with countries which gave out the Russian / Chinese vaxes? Might be an interesting comparison.
Scenario:
1. Vac turns your cells into spike protein factories.
2. Spike protein causes mitochondria damage
3. Chronic continuing mitochondria damage turns cells cancerous and makes cancer cells immortal.
4. Metastatic cancer causes death.
Cancer as a metabolic disease, Seyfried.
Somebody already did this analysis with more words.

Since the early 1970s attempts have been made to create a coronavirus vaccine. All attempts have been failures, the usual result being a condition variously called "Antibody Dependent Enhancement" / "Paradoxical Immune Response" or "Pathogenic Priming": Test animals would display robust antibody production -- but on exposure to the virus, develop severe forms of the disease and die. And while ADE carried on into the mRNA "vaccines", there is no reason to believe the Russian Chinese vaxes won't also result in ADE. RFKjr.'s "The Real Anthony Fauci is a Must Read on all that; also read "Turtles All the Way Down" for other fun factoids on vaccination... 🙄
Yes, except most of those countries sadly squandered their likely advantage by putting an mRNA booster on top to ruin things. Same with UK which used the AstraZeneca initially.
There is another funeral home stock Carriage Services (CSV) that has missed earning last two quarters. Perhaps their management just sucks.
I looked at CSV when I bought SCI. I don't remember why I chose SCI, but there was a reason I didn't pick CSV. Didn't feel that it would benefit from this jab issue. I try to be agnostic when I look at stocks. Not happy to benefit from this situation, but I didn't cause it.
Agree... Am thinking about buying some stock...
However I absolutely cannot invest in big pharma ...just couldnt sleep at night..‼️
About a year ago, I went through the mutual funds I own to make sure there was no Pfizer, Moderna or life insurers in the top 10 stocks they own. So far, I don't think that's made much difference, but it may at some point. I had to sell one or two.
Good for you. I bought CSV.
Cancer, dementia & diabetes deaths have skyrocketed in Australia & make up most of the 15,000 excess deaths. I bet it’s the same in the US. Keytruda cancer treatment sales are through the roof. It started in feb 2021 in Australia. Something is well off. You might expect more deaths from cancer due to not seeing a Dr but a large increase in diagnosis is not normal.
Look into cancer. It’s bad.
US looking like sigma 20 with cancer.

The jabs have destroyed people's immune system, as it was designed to do.
Absolutely! I think jabbed bodies are focused on fighting Corona and nothing else.

Well, according to recent articles on Arkmedic's substack, the data from NSW has been manipulated. The question arises then, how to get a raw data set from the AUS govt.?

Until they start breaking mortality out by vax status, the rational explanation is vax status.
In Australia the MSM is blaming this on covid. The stories always end with get vaccinated (get f*cked)
Omicron was and is a 'nothing-burger'. The MSM in Australia is about as bad as it gets; I turned them all off early 2021 and will never go back. For example, Sky News Australia is good on the global warming scam but they won't touch the vax democide with a ten foot pole.
They tried but YouTube got to them.
Alex,if you remember about 1,5 years ago it was triple overdose case's to seeing a true covid-19 patient. MOST AMERICANS ARE BEGGING FOR BIDEN AND
HARRIS TO JUST LEAVE!
Again if this was happening under Ted Cruz this would be front page news for the legacy media. They the legacy media is not paying attention just like the millions they took from our pharmaceutical companies.
Anthony, Is Harris even still Biden's deputy? D'ye know I haven't seen or heard of her in about18 months in all I read and watch. She is totally invisible.
I realise I am in the UK but we are like the 51st state - whatever BS happens in the US eventually infects us too.
I saw a clip of her recently cackling over the prospect of electric school buses. Meanwhile our southern border, which I thought she was put in charge of, is wide open. So if you want to migrate, that’s the way in.
he just called her president last week!
https://nypost.com/2022/10/25/biden-calls-kamala-harris-a-great-president-in-another-gaffe/
but yeah, mostly she stays hidden in the background until biden screws something up & people start saying we should remove him via the 25th amendment.
then they'll schedule some event for her to speak at & play the video on all the stations to remind everyone that she would take over if biden is removed.
It must be “long Covid”, there’s no other explanation.
From what the science and medical experts say (those on the right side of history), we’ve got approx 2/3 more years (post these poison death shots) of serious vaxx injuries and, thus, high death counts to come. It’s going to be horrific, as it is currently. It’s very hard to come to terms with as we all have loved ones who have taken these shots. Let’s set our intention to believing there will be as many survivors as possible. 🙏🏻 Brace yourselves.
I’m in my early 60’s & woke up today to a text from my close high school friend telling us her brother in law (mid 60’s) unexpectedly dropped dead from a heart attack...this not too long after another close friend lost her 68 yr old brother in law from a sudden unexpected heart attack...and we recently lost a close friend within the last 9 months to a strange combo of liver & pancreatic cancers...and another close friend who died from sudden brain trauma after a fall while getting out of the shower in July...we’re almost reeling at this point...Alex your post today was nothing short of IRONIC & prophetic?!? Something isn’t right.
My 60 year old aunt just diagnosed with stage 4 metastasized pancreatic cancer this week.
I’m so sorry to hear about your aunt 🥲 and pray for her healing! 🙏 It seems medically/scientifically logical and critically important to vigilantly track any connection with these sudden adult health crises/deaths with vaccination at this point??
Family owned funeral homes are becoming a thing of the past. They are coalescing into monopolies based on locality. If you don't believe it go do some preplan shopping and visit every funeral home you care to and they will all come down to with 1 maybe $200 for the entire package which will be a significant portion of a mortgage. $10-$15k is the range for a bare bones basic funeral. Cremations are even more ridiculous. You can cremate several bodies on a 20# propane tank yet the average cost is over $1,000. Seriously, an urn is more expensive than the process to cremate a body.
As an aside, you don't think russia created mobile crematoria to use in Ukraine if it cost $1,000 per corpse do you? Nope, they did it because it is incredibly inexpensive and costs far less than shipping a body back to the motherland.
Just curious... Is Bill Gates a major stockholder?
And you still do not believe this is a death jab? I feel like our whole world is in a burning building and people are saying this building is on fire, but the owner of the building is saying stay where you are everything is fine the building is not on fire. You smell smoke and screams are heard FIRE ; yet the announcement comes that it’s not on fire only someone who burnt something in the kitchen. Then you see the flames leaping through the door many scream FIRE !! Once again the manager says your crazy its not what you think you are fine don’t believe what you see!! At this point it’s too late….
I feel in good company asking this question here but I don't understand how "we" can be the only people connecting the dots. How is it that we're not hearing any outrage that yet another 49-year-old suddenly died of a heart attack? Another 29-year-old professional athlete in peak physical form suddenly passed away.
Crickets.
All I'm hearing is "causation does not equal correlation" trope but clusters of unusual deaths are cause for scientific investigation.
Can anyone give me good news that this is shifting?
Other countries (outside the U.S.) are more advanced in their clinical trials and academic rigor. There has got to be a groundswell movement somewhere! Right?
In my local newspaper, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, comments are never allowed on any stories of younger people who died suddenly. The son of a former coach for the Minnesota Vikings passed a few days ago at age 38. No comments allowed because someone might wonder about his “vax” and booster status. Same with the woman who wrote the Julie & Julia blog that was the basis for a movie a few years ago. Died in her sleep at 49. No questioning allowed! These are just two cases. There have been many more. Anyone who goes of very old age, accident or known cause of death - comment away! Of course, none of the known causes are ever attributed to poisons from Moderna or Pfizer...
Exactly! The family of Illinois Congressman Sean Casten is sharing more details about how the representative's 17-year-old daughter died.
Gwen Casten was found dead in her room in June. At the time, her family said it appeared she had died in her sleep.
Casten's family released a statement Friday that Gwen Casten died of sudden cardiac arrhythmia.
"In layman's terms, she was fine, and then her heart stopped," the statement said.
In a statement, the Casten family said in part, "None of us know when our last heartbeat will come. The best we can hope for is that when our loved ones do pass, we will have no regrets about the time we were lucky enough to share. So hug the folks you love a little harder today. Be present in their lives. And spread your love a little farther. Because in the end, it's all that remains."
https://abc7chicago.com/sean-casten-daughter-gwen-death-downers-grove/12303682/
If it was my child, I would be publicizing the cause of death and warning other people about the side effects so more families wouldn’t have to go through this horrifying situation. It’s irresponsible not to do so.
Isn't that wild? 17 years old - in perfect health, active, great diet, no comorbidities. A U.S. Senator who is most likely devastated and whose voice could begin an investigation... yet, it's just "rare, but gosh, it can happen to anyone." I don't understand why these deaths are being swept under the carpet.
Apparently, the culprit is the lipid-protein coating the virus in the vax that is stimulating the adverse, devastating reactions. And yet...crickets.
https://drtesslawrie.substack.com/p/trust-the-mothers
Cause of death meaning the Covid shots and not the “sudden cardiac arrhythmia”.
Btw That particular witch said she thought it was just dandy if anyone who wasn’t vaxxed died of COVID!!!
Nope. Crickets …
No mention of how the funeral business has become yet another government contractor? FEMA still is paying for funerals if you agree to list Covid as the cause of death. Through 6/22 FEMA has paid for 406K funerals at a total cost of $2.6B. Yes, 2.6 BILLION.
A friend of mine was telling me about an active young man she knows that had several “mini heart attacks from the virus” but the family thought it was from the Pfizer vax... but very rare.
then later today I see a phizer FB ad saying get the vax if you have heart issues and about a million comments of different people saying they have heart issues from Covid. What the actual heck?!? Is Pfizer trying to convince people any issues are from Covid so get the vax? I wish I would have taken a screen shot.
The company line is that Covid causes heart problems. If they happen after a jab it’s just coincidence. They’ve successfully brainwashed many Covidians, at least judging from a few irritating conversations I have had.
It’s insane to produce something that potentially causes heart conditions and then market it by scaring people about heart conditions!
It’s just plain evil. I thought Our Big Government was supposed to protect the public against predatory corporations
That baby eating Putin strikes again! Is there no limit to his evil?
This is more than alarming!!!
I am certainly no expert on life insurance issues.
I did notice today after the close of a very disastrous overall stock market day that Lincoln National Insurance Company (LNC) reported their 3rd quarter numbers. They had to take some charges. Although some of it appeared to be increased charges from payouts for people dying, there were some other things going on as well. That is best left to an expert. I am just making an observation.
It was enough to tank the stock instantly almost 20%.
Alex, I do wonder how much of this life insurance situation also has to do with what you are reporting here.
What I get out of all this, is life insurance is taking a big hit because all/cause deaths are way up. Funeral homes are getting a big bonus because all-cause deaths are way up.
Did I miss anything?
No, you got it right.
Statistics are so, um, pre Covid
Get over it
Nothing to see here
I recommend Dr John Campbell's YouTube Channel. Very measured and data driven. The UK numbers are clearest. Most worrying is how Canadian data, which use to be good, disappeared (Alex' used the Ontario data a few times).
Also - in my check up, my Doctor checked the Provincial Guidelines - I am not eligible for Plaxovid, and the new booster - not recommended. I'm 55Y, and in great shape. Our elderly Pediatrician, who worked in Africa and is a HUGE booster of vaccines, never pushed the mRNA.
It's Russia, climate change, and MAGA Republicans, obviously. 🙄
mRNA vaccines are causing people to die in untold numbers. Yet the arrogant elite scumbags tell us to boost away. It is evil.
