We realize this is Twitter, but, if you want to prevent the New Normal from becoming our permanent reality, try to set aside the usual shitting-on-people-because-they-are-wrong thing, and focus on strategy. We need loud voices taking apart the official narrative. (1)
Yes, it's frustrating to those of us who have been fighting the roll-out of the New Normal for 17 months, while they have not, but what is more important ... proving we were right or disrupting the implementation of the totalitarian social system that is happening, right now? (2)
Prominent voices like @ggreenwald and @mtaibbi are beginning to feel like they can criticize certain features of the official New Normal narrative. Decide how you want to respond. Do you want to encourage more of that, or shit on them for not going all the way? (3)
This isn't a Twitter shit-fight. Consider the stakes. Every major GloboCap country is now rolling out a pseudo-medical segregation system, mandatory "vaccination," demonizing/persecuting the "Unvaccinated," etc. This is happening. In real life. Get your priorities straight. (4)
When a loud (useful) voice starts speaking out against New Normal fanaticism, no matter how mildly, applaud it, encourage it. Criticize it. Point out its flaws and traps. But applaud the fact that they are finally speaking out. Welcome that speaker to the fight. (5)
Yes, this strategy entails setting our egos aside for the sake of achieving a goal ... the alternative is to end up sitting in a "quarantine camp" somewhere, or living in a paranoid, totalitarian, perpetually monitored society like a bunch of fucking slaves. (6)
So, choose. We can focus on strategy, which will mean biting our tongues a bit, sometimes, or we can end up in the dystopian nightmare GloboCap is rolling out ... but, hey, at least we will have been "right." (End)

Update from New Normal Germany - Berlin police ban the scheduled August 1 protest demanding the end of unlawful "emergency measures" and the return of our constitutional and human rights. And here's a photo of the Christopher Street Day demo in Berlin 4 days ago.
"The Berlin police had to forbid the demos in question after assessing all the circumstances and findings, after the extensive experience with these protest movements and after weighing up all interests, especially the high value of freedom of assembly," the statement said.
"One of the hallmarks of totalitarian systems is the criminalization of dissent. Not just the stigmatization of dissent ... but the formal criminalization of dissent, and any other type of opposition to the official ideology of the system." (May 2021) consentfactory.org/2021/05/03/the…
The lab-leak story is (a) an out for those who haven't wanted to face the fallout of covering the actual Covid story, i.e., manipulation of definitions and statistics to generate the illusion of an apocalyptic plague, and (b) reification of that illusion. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
If they can get you focus on how the "monster virus" may have "escaped from a lab" (like in a sci-fi movie), maybe you'll forget about Sweden, Florida, Texas, etc.
If they can get you focus on how the "monster virus" may have "escaped from a lab" (like in a sci-fi movie), maybe you will forget how they redefined a medical "case" to include perfectly healthy people, and then reported an explosion of "cases."

At the end of every year, we normally retweet all our essays for that year, so we're going to go ahead and do that. We'll start with March, because 2020 essentially started in March.
In Frankfurt, the New Normal Gestapo instructed this man to eat his apple faster, in order to comply with the Apple-Eating-Speed Regulations ... seriously, not a joke. The cop is ordering the man to eat faster. Happy yet, totalitarians?
Meanwhile, on the road to a protest in Dredsen, it was time for "show me your papers." This bus was intercepted by the police, who demanded everyone's ID docs, ordered them to go home, and then escorted the bus back to the motorway.
