“By smuggling these things (hair clips, chocolate) inside to recruit followers & build influence, they create hatred towards the government & endanger national security"
2. “To be GOVERNED is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so" - Proudhon
3. Another Thieving Bastard is Steve Li
Senior Superintendent of the Police National Security Department
"During the newsroom raid, officers "found" computers, mobile phones and HK$500,000 in cash"
4. To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction noted, registered, counted, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, prevented, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished.
"These sham elections are a farce. The CCP decided an easy way of winning the election is to lock up the entire opposition & rig the rules. This is not a democratic vote, it is a propaganda exercise which has no legitimacy"
"It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, drilled, fleeced, exploited, monopolized, extorted from, squeezed, hoaxed, robbed"
9. Proof of the Pudding
a list of protestors and pro-democracy activists arrested, prosecuted or imprisoned by the Hong Kong government (last updated: 16 December 2021)
At the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, vilified, harassed, hunted down, abused, clubbed, disarmed, bound, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned..That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality.”
12. What remains?
Life in jail for anyone who violates China's new Hong Kong security law?
Short 🧵on Primer & PCR Test issues (Pangolin Covs)
1. The key issue with pangolins and Pcovs is that:
It was discovered that the standard PCR tests used in 2020, and often still used, failed to actually detect many of the betacoronaviruses generously hosted by the pangolins.
2. Unless
The samples are retested with bespoke primers & more accurate PCR tests available now,
We will not know exactly whIch Pangolin (or bat) coronaviruses were hosted by Pangolins at WIV & elsewhere pre-pandemic.
However, "they" (I will name who they are later) should, and perhaps in the future, may retest the stored samples at WIV, IPB, SCAU AND GIABR, to clarify the question of which coronaviruses were present in their pangolin samples.
1. Remote truck drone swarm bombings are here to stay!
The techniques will be improved and nowhere will be safe unless underground.
Questions to consider:
How many panel vans, transit vans and small trucks are there in a big city at any one time?
2. This is a revolution in sabotage tactics
Welcome to the future of air bases!
Without concrete and earth roofed revetments, aircraft are sitting ducks.kyivpost.com/post/53749
3. The "good old days"
"clandestine antiaircraft devices using gallium metal pencils which when applied to aircraft results In destruction due to stress failure at the point of application"

🧵2. A Scaly Panacea
...where the pangolin, that scaly denizen of subtropical climes, hath been elevated to a panacea most wondrous.
The Baicao Chinese Medicine compendium, a veritable gospel of herbal wisdom, doth proclaim the virtues of this creature’s scales...
🧵3. Humanity's Salvation?
...harvested with a diligence that would shame the most ardent of alchemists.
I propose, therefore, a modest scheme to amplify this noble tradition, ensuring that the pangolin’s sacrifice might serve the greater good of humanity.
1. What appears wasteful research to you in the present may be of great value to you or others in the future, if it is given the time to develop to its logical end.
Don’t judge the usefulness of your findings too quickly!
2. What appears wasteful or a dead end to you..
May be of immense value to somebody else!
Don’t judge the usefulness:
1. Of other people’s findings based only on your own assessment of them.
2. Of your own findings based only on your own current assessment of them either.
3. What appears wasteful and a dead end to you..
A. May be the raw stuff that new hypotheses and new research directions are born from.
B. Don’t judge the usefulness of your "investigations" until you have given them enough time to surprise you.
