I’m glad I turned out to be a rebel. I didn’t fall for any of the Covid garbage. Sadly, some of my family did, including getting all the shots and super cleaning items purchased from grocery stores. Couldn’t talk some out of it either. Weirdest thing I ever saw.
This references the grocery washing... those epidemiologists must've been laughing at us all with their stupid recommendations. This is a SNL skit. Funny stuff! https://youtu.be/Q7hoynDj4WI?si=3GZx3mfOt0iJfpIu
I'll admit to buying some super cleaning stuff. (A couple of items, only.) With 3 dogs, I don't think it'll go to waste. Muddy little monsters almost all fall, winter, and spring. 🤨
The similarities between today's western governments and that of Nazi Germany in the 1930's (just 90 years ago) is eerie. The worst is the large number of people who will do what the government tells them to do even if it is wrong and hurts or kills people. Remember the Milgram experiment.
The similarities between today's western governments and that of communist governments from 1917 to present day is eerie to me. Considering that the red terrors, gulags, holodomor, katyn forest, the great leap forward, pol pot in cambodia, enemies of the revolution were executed in every communist revolution, che guevara personally murdered 2 thousand, vasily blokhin became a KGB major general for personally murdering 20,000 at Katyn Forest, etc. The fact that communist governments murdered exponentially millions more of their own people from 1917 and are continuing today is never mentioned. Germany 1933-45 bad, communists? we don't ever mention them. The misery and horror of communism is never talked about because the official narrative forbids it. Why is that?
Because they deflected the former realities of communism into the dustbin of history—communism no longer exists and you must be afraid of right wing nazis
Thanks, Dennis. I continue to think something odd is now going on at Substack ... especially to newsletter authors who write the articles that I write. I appreciate everyone that's able to support me.
I've had trouble with using VPN, too. Not with getting subscriptions, though. Once in a while I get banned from commenting-- I just clear my browser's history and restart my computer and then it works fine.
That was the headline from an article about Lahaina, and sums up what has been happening the last four years.
Yes, I totally agree Bill, and I have been speaking about this for a long time and totally agree with you: people need to repent for what they did, and that includes those who took the vaccine - why they did it and why they went along with it. For most, it was either fear or love of money, status and the world.
I am not saying I am better than anyone else (I am NOT) but I said: Lord, I am willing to put the keys to my house and car on the bench and walk away from everything I have build my entire life to not take this vaccine. I will go and find the people who are living in tents in bushland and wait it out with them. I will be hungry, and dirty and could die, but I leave it in your hands. I am not afraid.
Christians always need to be aware and repent, but we as an entire world need a 'come to Jesus' moment about what happened.
Also true in 9/11. The authorities told people to remain in the towers.
As for people taking the jabs, I think in addition it was that they had been taught, from the time they were small children, to rely on their doctors for health advice, to not think for themselves. And most doctors were pushing those jabs like candy.
I find the routine 100% relying on doctors understandable-- to an important extent (never completely) I did it myself before covid-- but I see now that it is a kind of sloth and extremely dangerous.
I'm a big fan of Toby Rogers, too. It was a very interesting and perceptive post, as all of his are. That said, after some reflection, I don't know that it's worth the trouble to noodle so much on this fancy modern concept of, and attending pile of academic literature about, "Stockholm Syndrome."
Re: Toby Rogers' quote — “The members of the bourgeoisie just know — it’s an intuitive, felt sense — that it’s easier to align their interests with the ruling class than to fight against it"
Um, I think that's also called "sloth." The word has been around, probably, since the dawn of language itself.
What's certainly true though is that TV and Big Tech social media are controlled and have most peeps in their thrall. Also, of course, mass electronic narrative transmission is something new for humanity. It's an unspeakably powerful thing.
One of the most extraordinary things I witnessed in my life-- and this will sound silly and trivial, but it keeps coming back into my mind, and for a reason— is when my puppy saw a butterfly cartoon on the TV. It was just a drawing of a butterfly, slowly, slowly fluttering from one end of the screen to the other. No narrative. I had never and have never since seen a person or an animal so transfixed. Shortly after that, I gave my TV away. That was over 20 years ago. Literally, I think giving away my TV saved my life.
Agree 100% . Perhaps in another article you could write about how the captured media uses propaganda techniques developed by the CIA in order to brainwash people.
The largest challenge facing the world today, and the one thing NOBODY will address, is the growing population of planet Earth, and the finite resources available to sustain life. All of the issues that you proposed in your WHY list were issues that directly affect the MASSES. And It's the MASSES of happily ill-informed and ignorant that the Gov't Mobs have to worry about. Without MASSES there would be no horde to spread Covid at such an alarming rate, or the flu, or whatever toxin is the flavor of the month. There would be no horde at the gate ready to burn civilization to the ground, like we are seeing in the Middle East. Essentially, we are breeding ourselves into decline. Some folks might think I'm crazy, and that's okay. But when you have to start dealing with MASSES - whether they are rats, roaches, deer, birds or humans - there is trouble on the horizon.
- Why do you think light-bulbs used for decades? You mean the Edison bulb that is 5% efficient, creates heat and bacteria and only lasts 1000 hours? The first Edison bulb took 10000 experiements, 1000 employees, two years to develop an "improvement" in electric lights that cost $845,000 each and lasted only 13 hours. A pile of crap invention the height of Mt Everest couldn't describe his light bulb. The first 10 bulbs were sold to the Vanderbilt House, which ran on Coal with an Edison's DC generator while the generator burnt out every 6 months; it almost burnt their house to the ground. The Vanderbilts removed the lights from their house. https://teslaleaks.com/f/the-great-light-bulb-conspiracy-nikola-tesla-vs-thomas-edison
Yeah you tell me how you like that electric vehicle when you are stuck in a blizzard on a North Dakota highway due to a massive crash, in white out conditions, air temperature zero, wind chill 40 below, and it’s going to take at least 16 hours before you might be able to start moving. Your lovely batteries are now 50% efficient due to the cold (if you’re lucky), you have no way to charge them, and you get to choose between trying to stay warm, or keeping the charge to roll the car.
In the meantime, I’m stuck behind you with a full tank. I run the engine 15 minutes out of every hour with the heat on high. Over and over again. I could do it for days.
Meanwhile you freeze to death. I’ve heard it relatively painless.
CamillePaglia & JordanPeterson had a lengthy conversation some years ago, with the subject of the herd one topic of long discussion-it's on YouTube if you're interested.
Peterson offered a story about people researching zebras in Africa. One distraction and the chosen focus [one zebra] was lost and they had to start over again with another animal. A decision was made to dab red paint on the zebra or tag the ear to better follow the animal's action. Without fail, the one with that was the animal that was always the first target of the lions-they tagged the prey for the predator.
The conclusion of the researchers was that the pattern on zebras was NOT to hide them in their environment, but to hide individual zebras within the tribe, reducing the ability of lions to target one member.
I won't offer a link-it's bad practice. It's at ~24min of the 100+min exchange, if you're interested.

A reader of this column, a Brownstone colleague, added this perfect addendum - a quote I wish I'd used in this article:
On Toby’s Stockholm Syndrome point, I always think of this statement from Tocqueville:
“[N]othing is more familiar to man than to recognize superior wisdom in whoever oppresses him.”
It’s quoted here:
https://www.city-journal.org/article/the-bad-and-the-very-bad
My favorite quote of all time.
If you are not a contrarian, you are bound to be a victim.
Author unknown.
Great article Bill. BTW I never got this emailed to me... maybe my situation is paused. Substack is trolling you.
I'll renew today...
UPDATE: the email came through! Maybe the Chinese masters will allow us to talk after all.
