Ett hån

 

Och så fortsätter vi att håna den här fem år gamla artikeln (som lät lite väl orealistisk redan då)...

Fyrdubbling av levnadsstandarden väntar dagens unga

Prophecy

Not his worst gaffe, tbh. And you don´t need to be a prophet to realize this. From December, 2021. 

Joe Biden refers to Kamala Harris as "president"

They lacked the Corona Mindset

"America is destroying religion". You´d wish. Here is another interpretation: the liberal clergy is quitting, since many Christians in the pews are Trump-loving anti-vaxxers. 

As our holiday season winds down, give thanks that America is destroying religion

HA HA HA. "The religion of progress always quadruple down". 

"Fyrdubbling av levnadsstandard väntar dagens unga" 

Kris? Vilken kris?

Härligt att se att den fria marknaden fungerar. Pessimisterna har än en gång blivit motbevisade. Allt ordnar sig alltid i den bästa av alla möjliga världar! 

Gasflotta till elkrisens Europa

Hmmm...hade DN rätt, trots allt?

Vad bra, då *kan* vi ju betala de höga elräkningarna, ställa om till vindkraft och provocera fram krig i Ukraina. Hurra! Bästa julklappen i år!

Interesting times

OK, I am getting this right? Most scientists seem to be suggesting (if you read the fine print in the main stream media) that the Omicron variant of COVID-19 is much *less* dangerous than the Delta variant. Indeed, it seems to be much less dangerous than the original COVID-19 virus. Yet, it´s also expected to "completely overwhelm" the health care system. And for that reason, everyone who refuses to take the vaccine (which may not even work against Omicron - this also according to fine print in the main stream media) will be shut out of society: jobs, supermarkets, public transit, diners, pubs, etc. And, of course, Facebook. You might even end up in jail! Unless you live in a country where *everyone* is locked down...again. 

I call bullshit. It´s becoming increasingly clear that the lockdowns, mandates and passports are really about social control. Or, not to put too fine spin on it, repression. Are we to believe that the same neo-liberal governments *who never gave shit about health care before* (unless you could handsomely pay for it) are suddenly going after the evil evilly anti-vaxxers *because they want to save the health care system (and our public health)* from these truly Satanic minions? Not to mention everything else they screwed up for the past 30 year or so...

No, this is an ersatz state of emergency, a form of creeping authoritarian globo-liberalism, by which a dying class (the PMC) is trying to shore up its crumbling system and thereby its power and privilege. COVID is a real pandemic, but it must have been a heaven´s send that it came in 2020, enabling the US Democrats to defeat Trump in the elections, and then try and deflect (or even repress) popular anger at Biden´s failures by using COVID as the perfect excuse. It also created an excuse for both Dems and GOP to transfer billions or trillions to their fat corpocratic donors (the PMC and the corpocracy of course being tight allies). This also explains the (bizarre) tendency of many supposedly radical leftists (including ostensible revolutionaries) to *support* the state of emergency, which atomizes the working class and often disproportionately hits the specially oppressed. The leftists are based in the PMC, and indeed, under a lockdown, the workers and oppressed will become totally dependent on the work-from-home middle class radicals, who will "lobby" the governments to give the downtrodden at least a token slice of the COVID relief pie. Being does indeed determine consciousness. 

The good news is that the repression will fail. How many people are willing to put up with all this BS for another year? Or two years? And how strong is the globo-liberal establishment *really*? The so-called anti-vaxxers won´t go quietly into the night. Let´s hope there is still room for a peaceful, democratic conflict resolution in 2022. Otherwise, there might be an ugly trial by combat...

I long wondered how the old world would end. Fires? Floods? The Great Meteor? A squamous rugose green monster squid with bat wings rising from the ocean? Or some basic bitch combo of all the usual suspects: peak oil, Islamist terrorists, Russian breakaway republics, melting doomsday glaciers, the mysterious disappereance of the honeybees, and a random dude named Donald? (The SWP and Militant aren´t on the list, sorry.) I admit that I didn´t believe globo-liberalism would meet its Waterloo because of a flu epidemic and the refusal of some QAnons to take a vaccine, but I suppose we live in interesting times.

Arbeit macht frei?

Fria Tider slår ett slag för den lutherska arbetsmoralen. Eller också vill de visa MUF att de är pålitligt nyliberala. Själv sitter jag mest och skrattar. 

Vad nedanstående visar är ju några andra saker. 

Ett: en stor del av "den nya, dynamiska globala ekonomin" (blä blä) består av pseudo-jobb. För hur kan de där företagen överleva utan att faktiskt, ähum, *göra* något? 

Två: det finns personer som *inte* kan arbeta hemifrån. Arbetarklassen, eller tjänstearbetare. Däremot måste de betala skatt. För att finansiera medelklassens pseudo-jobb? 

Tre: Etablissemanget gjorde ett litet misstag, och inte så lite heller, när de stängde ner samhället för att "bekämpa corona". Systemet kommer snart att vara både avslöjat och bankrutt. 

Det verkar som att revolutionen faktiskt börjar "i vardagen", trots allt. 

Mediernas bästa tips: Så fejkar du arbete när du "jobbar hemifrån"

Jawohl, mein kommendant Jansson

Om vi tvingar alla att vaccinera sig (och återinför slavarbete på skitfarliga fiskebåtar) så skulle det här problemet inte uppstå, herr Jansson. 

Slutsats: anti-vaxx är fascistiska samhällsfiender som vill ta ifrån lojala samhällsmedburgare deras JULBORD!!! 

Vaccinpass nu!!! 

Janssons frestelse i fara

Time to chill out

 

The Deep State has told us to post pics of kittens to stop all the QAnon disinfo on the proverbial internets, so here we go... 

OMICRON PANIC

 

Here we go, right on schedule... 

BLACK FRIDAY

 

The time is now

What better time than now for Russia to invade Ukraine and China to take Taiwan? What could Joe Biden even *do* if such a thing happened? 

Brace for "the world´s worst winter"... 

Controlled opposition

 

What the heck is this? Jordan B Peterson, the supposed dangerous Alt Right daily stormer, wonders why we can´t just all get along. 

I´m sure guys like this managed to stop the Nazis, the Russian revolution, the French revolution, the Grinch revolution, even the US invasion of Grenada or something. Not to mention the supply crisis. LOL.

Yes, Jordan, "they" are coming for you (well, not really) and no Jungian psychoanalyst ever stopped the dogs of war...

Or the Wotan archetype, for that matter!  

Home for Christmas?

A lot of ham on this one. Seems Christmas is saved! No supply crisis here. Almost as bizarre as that old news item about the "Trump manatee"...

"He is Pashupati"

 

I linked to this before, but here we go again. 

I was inspired linking to this after reading in the papers that  the Danish minister of whatever (health care?) said that everyone who isn´t vaccinated will "live dangerously this winter". Apparently, corona-chan is picking up steam again.

Clearly, the Danish government doesn´t know half of it... 

One thing is clear: Sadhguru wouldn´t have any problem with Euthyphro´s dilemma! 

Om Kali Yuga

 

Climate crisis, migrant crisis, crime crisis, supply crisis, energy crisis, my own personal life crisis, COVID pandemic, COVID endemic, vaccine failure, trans craze, fall of Kabul, Bidenflation, Chinese supremacy, Russian supremacy, limits to growth, sixth mass extinction, pollinator crisis...

WE EMBRACE THEE, DESTROYER OF WORLDS, LET THY CRAZY DANCE CONTINUE, THE URGE TO DESTROY IS ALSO AN CREATIVE URGE!!! 

Om, om, om.

Just print the damn money

I´m old enough to remember when Republicans almost unanimously joined with the Democrats and had Congress pass THE BIGGEST FREAKIN´ SPENDING BILL IN AMERICAN BLOODY HISTORY.

You know, the COVID Pandemic Relief Bill Bill, or whatever it was called. Bull? The one that gave *trillions* (or was it quadrillions) of freshly created money out-of-thin-air (I assumed that was a John Bircher conspiracy theory?) to the GOP corporate donors, the Dem corporate donors, and even to the Ayn Rand Institute! (Is pandemic pay a human right all of a sudden?)

No Republican Congress(wo)man complained about excessive spending then.

But now...oh, the hue and the cry over Biden´s infrastructure bill...

No, I´m not buying it. You have the money. Yes, really. JUST PRINT IT. Then, give the money to the truck drivers, warehouse workers and other essential people in the transport business. The supply crisis would be over within a week. 

Is there a leftoid group somewhere that campaigns around *this*, rather than CRT or David Chappelle´s anti-trans comments? Let them now step forward!

Nightmare before Christmas?

I love this article. It mentions a business actually called "Chad´s Christmas Trees", and a newspaper called "Cowboy State Daily". (They missed Greta the Grinch, though. I expected a based site like Breitbart to blame the Christmas tree shortages on Greta Thunberg!) There is also ACTA, the American Christmas Tree Association?!

Yes, it´s involuntary hilarity. In reality, this nightmare before Christmas isn´t funny at all. Something tells me a shortage of X-mas trees will be the last thing on our minds when shit really hits the fuckin fan on this rock...
