The majority is no doubt expected to react to this, lament the loss of morals and sanity, your emotional spring loaded to the breaking point, ready for rupture when a solution is finally presented by your rulers. Or maybe all this is done to teach us how to think, how to reason to defend ourselves from insanity, not just rely on traditional conventions.

The following in vitro (test tube) study shows that Pfizer vaccine mRNA can be converted to DNA (from mRNA) inside human cells. This is of course very concerning, but does not mean that the mRNA becomes part of human DNA (is absorbed into the human genome); it is only converted (transcribed) to a free floating DNA sequence that is not part of the human genome. The authors of the study explain: “At this stage, we do not know if DNA reverse transcribed from BNT162b2 is integrated into the cell genome. Further studies are needed to demonstrate the effect of BNT162b2 on genomic integrity, including whole genome sequencing of cells exposed to BNT162b2, as well as tissues from human subjects who received BNT162b2 vaccination.” https://www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73/htm
“With mountains of documentation, mostly from government and corporate sources, Sutton shows that Soviet military technology is heavily dependent on U.S. and allied gifts, "peaceful trade" and exchange programs. We've built for, sold or traded, or given outright to the Communists everything from copper wiring and military trucks to tank technology, missile guidance technology, computers - even the Space Shuttle.” In short, the Soviet superpower was built with American money and technology transfers, where Cold War soviet espionage was perhaps only the public face given to intentional intelligence sharing. Incompetence was always the best cover for treason and conspiracy. It would be naive to assume that the Russian state is now an independent player, fighting for their own people. The theatre of war is indeed just theatre, with millions of unwitting extras who end up real dead. https://www.amazon.com.au/Best-Enemy-Money-Can-Buy/dp/1939438543/

A publicly owned bank, proposed by Malcolm Roberts https://news.1rj.ru/str/senatorroberts/738, is a great idea. In fact, all credit issuing institutions should be publicly owned since credit inflates the money supply and thus functions as an indirect tax on the entire economy. The only Fair banking is public banking. https://michaelkowalik.substack.com/p/how-money-works

The Big 4 banks have been ripping Australians off for decades. Taking all the profits, they're leaving regional communities in the dust, closing branches and strangling small business capital. We need a people's bank in Australia.

Public banks create money at interest to the public instead of drawing revenue via income tax. Private banks create money at interest to the banks and thus covertly tax the public via inflation, on top of the income tax. The choice is a no-brainer: we have nothing to lose and everything to gain by legislating for all credit issuing institutions to be publicly owned.
Why be Rational?
The idea of “different ways of knowing”, implying that different standards of rationality are equally rational, equally valid, presupposes a universal, singular standard of rationality according to which all the multiple standards are ascertained as “valid”, thus negating the idea that there are multiple standards, therefore non-sense. Moreover, to deny the existence of a one, universal standard of rationality, consisting of the laws of non-contradiction, excluded middle and identity, is to deny the possibility of common meaning, a common bond, therefore it amounts to denying humanity.
One may ask, why be rational? Non-adherence to the law of non-contradiction impedes our capacity to reliably realise our intentions, to be reliable and trustworthy, to understand others and be comprehensible, to generate common meaning, and this leads to practical failure, alienation, violence and suffering. It is therefore in everyone’s interest to be rational.

How to be Rational about being Right
Lord (2017) has rigorously demonstrated that what we are rationally required to do is just what we Ought to do. This conclusion nonetheless raises the question as to what exactly counts as Rationality. Do normative judgements made on the basis of, for example…
Irrational cultures are conquered and perish.
Rationality dictates that irrational cultures Ought to be conquered (by rationality) and allowed to perish.

Leadership is antithetical to individual moral authority and freedom. Dogs have leaders; morally responsible humans think in their own words, learn from interacting with others and make their own moral determinations, but do not follow.
Claiming privilege on the basis of ancestry commits one to also accept any liability for the actions of one’s ancestors (all of them). On this basis, everyone who claims ancestral privilege (for example, monarchy) is guilty of murder.
Vaccine mandates imply that being born human is no longer a guarantee of the right to life, coercing us to periodically submit to a medical procedure that some will not survive.
If many lives are more valuable than a few lives, allowing for legalised killing of a few innocents to protect the majority, than we also ought to mandate that women must have babies as often as possible, abortion prohibited in all cases, because more babies means more humans, therefore more value. More humans (more value) need more room, more food, more services, so we also ought to appropriate all natural resources to maximise the human population. Is this what you really want, Klaus? So let us agree that all lives have absolute moral status rather than cumulative value, and therefore nobody can be deprived of life for the benefit of others.

A: UTILITARIAN THESIS
Lives do not have absolute value, therefore it is permissible to sacrifice a few lives to save many lives.
What makes the many lives valuable?
The absolute value of life.
B: REVERSE UTILITARIAN THESIS
Life is valuable, therefore we have the moral obligation to save many lives, even if this requires sacrificing a few lives.
What makes the fewer lives less valuable than many lives?
Lives do not have absolute value.

RETHINKING THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT (Report)
“The IPCC claims that the atmosphere, warmed by increasing carbon dioxide concentrations, has heated the oceans below. However, this cannot be true, because, in the tropics at least, the atmosphere is cooler than the ocean.
Varying carbon dioxide concentrations do have an influence; as they increase, the emission of radiation to the surface increases, warming the ocean surface. However, as noted in Table 1, the effect over the tropics is small. In fact, it is possible to calculate that the increase in carbon dioxide concentration, from 337 ppm to 411 ppm, only results in an increased energy flow of 0.3 W/m2. That is far too little to explain an increased ocean temperature of 0.4°C, because the increased temperature in turn increases the flow of energy to the atmosphere by about 3.5 W/m2.
In other words, while a small amount of extra energy has gone into the tropical ocean surface as a result of increased carbon dioxide concentrations, eight times as much has been escaping to the atmosphere. The absorption of additional radiation energy from the change in carbon dioxide concentration is insufficient to support the rise in latent heat loss from the increase in surface temperature.
This leaves changes in ocean currents as the only plausible explanation for the warming of the tropical reservoir. Importantly, this idea is supported by real-world evidence, such as the observed slowing of the Gulf Stream.”

Those who acquiesced to medical coercion, took the vaccine and covered up their faces, those who demanded that everyone ought to be injected or punished for refusal, have exercised their own moral judgement. No amount of propaganda could excuse their collusion. We are either Human, capable of moral discernment, and thus deserving of moral status, or we are just deterministic animals, at the mercy of circumstances and political stimuli, innocent like animals, but by the same token morally worthless, without rights. Nevertheless, the unvaccinated have a moral obligation not to treat them as victims but as collaborators, because this is the only way to preserve their humanity. If people are treated as if they are not fully responsible for their actions on account of impersonal factors, then the underlying message is that they are not fully moral agents, therefore not fully human agents.
I challenge Anthony Albanese to consistently explain why killing humans is wrong, because until this is clearly understood nothing will change, and people who moralise about victimhood of one identity group may be happily slaughtering another. By the way, all races have committed massacres and have suffered them, so prioritising one racial group for political currency is unjust, but it also misses the essence of morality: a race, group, nation, tribe does not possess moral conscience of its own, is not a conscious Self, and is therefore not morally responsible for anything; only individuals can be morally responsible for their own actions. Unless you can name specific individuals who committed specific crimes, no moral case can be made. Who gave the order, who obeyed? Democidal criminals (who usually live in castles, palaces or government lodges) like to use the cover of race to dilute their personal liability to practical insignificance.

Gender identity is described as an internal sense of what you are. If the sense of what you are is true then you already are it and there is nothing to correct about what you are; if the sense of what you are is false then there is still nothing to correct about what you are. Senses do not tell you what you should be, or what you should do, or what you should look like. Gender affirmation is an Is-Ought fallacy.
Tribalism is Self-defeating
An identity that is ideologically bound to the land, that includes the land as an integral part of ‘our people’, implies nativist supremacism, which is in principle anti-human and precludes universal ethics, and is therefore a priori wrong. It is trivially true that every human is a product of their ancestors and their cumulative experiences, but tribal cultures devalue the fact that we all share the same ancient ancestors, that we are all related, and instead carve out an arbitrary value-distinction in a particular time period and area; a negation of the common roots of humanity for the sake of tribal advantage over others. The injustice of tribalism is not so much the emphasis on bloodline in their becoming, but ignoring the fact that we are all of the same bloodline, and that the significance of bloodline is logically subordinate to the human capacity to generate meaning. The best thing that indigenous tribes can do to advance their agency is to abandon tribal ideology and embrace their human identity, as conscious rational beings capable of creating unbounded meaning with all other humans, by means of what we all have in common. You are all welcome.
