Great quote about order followers being more morally culpable than the order givers!

They keep people compliant with shock after shock and these people normalize messed up crap as normal. I was appalled at how many people went along with Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia and other ridiculous wars that not only were morally reprehensible but cost us billions!

Another great piece!

Reminds me of some lines from one of my poems about pols: “their impressive Potemkin lives / spent touting the latest faddish fix / for ever-pressing problems that mostly don't exist”.

Talk about madness stacked upon madness. Mindful of “whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad”, the danger of course, now with our technological capabilities, is these madmen destroying all of us.

So many choice bits for a quote freak like me, to wit...

“Again, no matter how mesmerised you are by climate alarmism, it is both ghoulish and megalomaniacal to interfere with a natural planetary interaction by seeking to ration the life-giving energy of the sun by dimming it.”

“But the IPCC won’t do that because it’s not a scientific body; it’s a political institution dedicated to promoting CO2 as the dominant cause of a purportedly catastrophic man-made ‘climate crisis’.”

“When you conduct an experiment in the real world, the results don’t lie. When you conduct an experiment in the virtual world, the results can be anything you want them to be.”

“Deciding to play Russian roulette and then regulating the insanity does not ameliorate the risk of getting our heads blown off. It merely records the gory details of playing Russian roulette. The entire Western world is essentially one massive sprawling bureaucracy devoid of common sense and morality.”

“The fact that the US and the UK, two leading members of the most destructive global institution on the planet – the US-NATO empire – consider themselves to be more rational and responsible than the countries they routinely reduce to rubble with war and sanctions should have all sane people rolling in the aisles.”

“Nowhere is there any reference to a debate of the fundamental question that precedes both the activity and the regulation thereof – should the activity be taking place at all?”

“The whole mindset driving geoengineering is so diabolical and demented that even those of us who understand the absurdity find it difficult to acknowledge the inherent barbarity of literally stealing the sun.”

Muchas gracias! Yes, until now I was angered but not frightened by the madness of others because I foolishly did not understand the true meaning of karma - if we are collectively mad, we collectively suffer (and vice versa).

Thank you so much for doing this. I am new to this issue and am struggling to see what to do about it, both personally and as a writer and activist. Being exceptionally preoccupied with the weather, I've studied the skies all my life and have never seen them as they've been over south-east London this summer. I have a sore throat, intermittent cough and stinging eyes which I can't explain in terms of illness and which goes when I leave London for (relatively) clearer skies.

I'll share something pertinent to your findings when I've read the second post.
