Dr. Fauci has barely appeared in the media for the past 4 weeks, and possibly not at all in the past 2-3 weeks. After 15 days to flatten the curve turned into 2+ years, he may have exceeded his “Best if used by” date as many politicians want to bury the pandemic fast as they can (it is a Congressional election year).
A Russian Telegram channel purporting to “fact check” reports about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is itself a fake operation used to spread misleading propaganda messaging.

Stanford’s Professor Michael McFaul is a fool. He said on MSNBC that Hitler never targeted ethnic Germans. McFaul is a fool, an idiot, and makes us wonder if his biography is a fraud.

In the 1950s and 1960s, government technocrats held propaganda campaigns to convince us that to be safe in a nuclear attack, we just needed to “duck and cover” under our desks. Every elementary school student practiced this in monthly drills. But it was utterly useless. Its purpose was to pretend that we had control over something for which we actually had no control. It is similar to what just transpired during the pandemic – we were mandated to engage in actions that were utterly useless.
Restaurants use an arsenal of manipulation techniques to encourage you to purchase higher profit items, and even to eat food faster so they can turn around the table to another customer, more quickly.
As long as we carry electronic devices with us, we are being tracked and potentially logged in databases.
