A coup masquerading as safety measures

The devil is our undoing, the ultimate liar who preys on our weaknesses and takes many forms.  

While I don’t believe this literally, there is plenty of metaphorical evidence to support it.

Jon Rappoport's article on Lew Rockwell is a case in point: The reality behind 2020 is a nightmare, a visit from the devil on a kind and naive people. 

"COVID-19 is essentially an intelligence-agency type covert op.

"The short-term goal is wrecking economies. The long-term goal is taking the population into a new world of technocratic control."

I wish I could regard him as a nutcase but he has too much data on his side.  How do you wreck an economy quickly?  We've seen it -- strike terror into the people with a virus scare to get them pleading for help, give them help by mandating masks in defiance of science, tell them to stay home to stop the spread in defiance of science -- but give them "science" that affirms government decisions.  Get the corrupt media and tech behind the movement to control what people hear, read, or view.  Attack contrarian views as misinformation, disinformation, lies, conspiracy theory, or wrong then suppress them.  Fire doctors who want to use a cheap and demonstrably safe and effective remedy for the virus.  Downplay or ignore the breathtaking increase in government debt arising from the first stimulus. And most of all get rid of Trump, an intruder who threatens globalist plans, any way they can.  

So far state COVID responses have achieved amazing results -- decimating small businesses, creating millions more government dependents, telling them celebrations must be limited, ruining the football season by prohibiting or limiting fan attendance and disrupting schedules with the flawed RT-PCR test, pushing the Masters into November, closing schools or forcing those in attendance to social distance and wear masks at all times, on and on and on.  

Push-back has been minimal or nonexistent.  Even in "open" Georgia where I live I find it extremely rare to see someone without a mask when I go shopping.  They couldn’t hurt me more if they hit me with a club.  Liberty lovers always thought 1984 or Brave New World was arriving slowly, and it was until it wasn't.  

“How did you go bankrupt?” Bill asked. 

“Two ways” Mike said. “Gradually and then suddenly.”

We are facing a coup masquerading as safety measures.  By seeking protection from the State we are becoming prisoners of the state.  Prisoners are obedient and take orders -- or else. How will people find the will to resist? 

“When did you grow a backbone?”

“Didn’t know I had one until it was do or die.”

Trump wavered on these matters.  Biden won't.  He will be ordered to encourage or mandate across-the-board lockdowns and the wearing of masks.  He won't need a budget.  He won't need to consult with Congress.  He will be destroying the last remnants of freedom.  It sounds suicidal, and it is.  He will have the media and other voices supporting him, including "experts" who swear the destruction of the economy is regrettable but necessary to save millions of lives from this horrible virus that the CDC and other government institutions have yet to isolate, which is consistent with the finding that total deaths have not risen in 2020 while deaths from the leading causes have declined to the same extent as reported deaths from COVID.  The media in keeping with form will keep the death count inflated and in our faces — they will tell whatever lies are needed.  Kids will grow up thinking masks and distancing and taking crippling orders from government are part of being a responsible adult, while they see elite hypocrisy everywhere they turn.  The free market and the black market will be one and the same.   

Trump might stall this effort.  Biden and the forces behind him will consummate it.  This is why rigging the election for a Biden win was mandatory.  How would the establishment get away with it?  Many ways, including computers that stole votes from Trump and gave them to Biden.  How convenient that Dominion voting machines included a weighted race feature in its documentation, perhaps as a key selling point to corrupt governments. Meanwhile, AG Barr says there's no evidence of widespread fraud.

That the steal is being done in plain sight should prompt us to think seriously about the kind of government we need.

How strong is your back?

Long as I remember,

The rain been coming' down.

Clouds of myst'ry pourin'

Confusion on the ground.

Good men through the ages

Tryin' to find the sun.

And I wonder,

Still I wonder

Who'll stop the rain.
