Good catch. I did forget about the masks. In preschoolers there’s really no reason to force kids down to 2 years old to do that. We’re the only country on the planet that recommends that. And it probably does harm them.
School closures have caused learning gaps for those that participated in remote learning. There are kids who fell completely off the map. The closures also contributed to social isolation which has led to increase in teen suicides, ER visits for mental illness and drug use.
Highest inflation in 40 years is overblown?
Either that argument is wrong or the IMF is wrong.
1% contribution.
Global debt cycle, money printing etc etc
I’m surprised nobody here linked to this. A pretty big deal, if true.
A rough translation here
looks like they want to regulate iT tightly with limits on self custody (not good). Establishing as a alternative currency is big though.
my tin foil hat theory is thus. Putin/Russia had previously come out against Bitcoin and mining. China has banned Bitcoin because they think it will hurt global adoption of their CBDC. A week or so after Putin and Xi meet, Russia comes out with partial embrace of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency is the one field of tech innovation that China has completely abandoned. They ceded the battlefield to the West. In this political climate, what better way to get people in the US to be more aggressively against Bitcoin than to have Russia signal that it’s a positive? That way you try to squash one big advantage your adversary has. Now the establishment Bitcoin columns will all be Russia Russia Russia.
The stakes are getting higher.
Not sure if this affects NYC, but PW has to be trembling. The kids will be back!!!
so much science changing around the country simultaneously. Breathtaking.
You didn’t answer the question but ok. My focus on natural immunity and side effects in young people going back to the summer was always based on the fact that I knew people were going to be coerced or mandated wrongfully and unnecessarily.
This goes without even delving into vaccine passports which are a much bigger picture concern.
Is opposing mandates, opposing the vaccine?
One notable exception is the lab leak theory. Authorities (including Fauci, Collins) knew it was the likely source from the beginning but smeared people that suggested it. Nothing’s changed about that science.
I would also humbly suggest that people who believed/predicted that natural immunity would be durable and similar to vaccination were more than just lucky when the clock stopped. That was just basic science/immunology.
It’s pretty easy to set up a multi signature wallet nowadays. Disperse the signing devices as far apart as you want. Makes these things much harder to pull off.
Um, no.
They had their private keys on their computer. Like leaving out the combo to your safe.
security was not their strong suit. Wife had an active tik tok
