I’ve decided to analyze a pro-Narrative piece from an “Antifa” strongman. https://independentaustralia.net/politics/politics-display/government-has-done-more-damage-than-anti-lockdown-movement,15938
HIDING AWAY at home, I look at the chaos caused by our abandonment of an effective pandemic response and my first tendency is to check in on the anti-lockdown movement. I want to ask them, any of them: “Well, how do you like it now? Are you happy? Is this your ‘freedom’?” It’s a force of habit, after spending nearly two years studying their conspiracist scene.
Tanuki can hide in his bathroom, but demanding that everyone else do the same is completely irrational. To answer the question: No, I am not happy that there is a global war being waged on humanity. I am not happy that “Antifa” is on the side of the oligarchy. If wanting the most elemental freedoms makes me a “conspiracist,” then a conspiracist I shall be.
But then I remind myself of the futility of thinking this way. Because it’s not really their fault, is it? For all their stupid costumes, rallies and stunts, they changed nothing. All of this is the Government’s fault — and in causing this chaos, I believe, the Government is only returning to form.
No, the government is not “returning to form” — because they have not changed.
Despite believing that, over my break I’ve been torturing myself watching different flavours of COVID-denialist. Specifically: Northern Rivers wellness influencers.
There’s no kink-shaming on this blog, what Tom does in his own home doesn’t interest me. I don’t have any interest either in the scientific analyses of Northern Rivers wellness influencers, because their opinions on science don’t really matter.
Worse, they’ve been intentionally sharing the virus with each other at “community immunity” parties. I know they’re happening in the Northern Rivers and reportedly around the Gold Coast, too. They’re contracting it from each other, not isolating, and so spreading it around.
This doesn’t seem like a good idea. This virus might be pretty much harmless to those with functioning immune systems, but they could take out some oldies or cancer patients. Maybe we should be less cavalier about influenza, too?
We all understand by now that even if we resent and fear it, this fantasy-land approach has become popular among Australians. But in 2022, our government has finally delivered these people their desired reality. Not just the wellness charlatans, but the entire cast of anti-lockdown organisers I’ve discussed in this column space throughout 2021.
What Tanuki describes as a “fantasy-land approach” is just everyday life. We have had to live with respiratory illnesses for thousands of years. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da.
They have what they asked for, right? That is: the freedom to visit their favourite shop and no real mandated responsibility to do anything for each other. There are restrictions and requirements, but it turns out they’re all easy enough to avoid. This is their time!
Actually, what I want is for the fascist lockdowners to be punished for their crimes, which sadly includes Tom Tanuki (and Doctor Karl).
So I can’t help but wondering if they find it a shame, or perhaps a mystery, that the outcome is much the same as during lockdowns. Instead of shops closed by government regulation, now that we have “freedom”, they’re closed because of rampant COVID illnesses. The toilet paper is still missing, but this time it’s because of supply chain breakdowns. (And for that same reason, many other aisles are empty, too.)
It’s actually because of two years of deranged propaganda, and the complete inability of dog-brained suburbanites to resist it.
But on the whole, a thousand grifting wellness shamans could not do in all their lifetimes the damage that the Australian Government has done to this nation in a month by abandoning responsible pandemic management. The entire anti-lockdown movement could not do this. They did nothing.
Yeah, because they are agents of GloboCap*. Of course Scott Morrison doesn’t care, what made you think that he (or any of them) did?
The Australian Government – federally through generous doling out of pandemic relief measures in 2020 and at state level through years of responsible pandemic measures – was acting out of character. Slavoj Žižek termed these abrupt relief measures around the world, like Australia’s temporary JobKeeper and increased JobSeeker, ‘disaster communism’.
Well, they have to keep some of the wheels of the machine turning. Elites want to rid themselves of Capitalism eventually, but they are stuck with it for the short term. Thus the handouts.
And that might be a bit of a stretch, but by God, did those measures save lives, businesses and communities. ‘Everyone’s a socialist in a crisis,’ it’s said. But they were temporary measures and now our government has remembered what we are.
Once again: They have to keep the wheels turning for a little while longer, while the infrastructure of the global totalitarian feudal superstate is put in place.
A collective public health response? Community-minded mutual aid sensibility? Staying at home to lend a hand to some nurse you’ve never met? They did not get it, because those are not the rules under which we grew up. They had a lifetime to internalise the vicious, penny-pinching, border-protecting, Indigenous-bashing and economy-venerating mantra of Howard’s era, itself only a reversion to the White Australia-era political playbook.
Howardism was the natural successor to Hawke/Keating neoliberalism. The successors to Howard turned out to be McGowan and Palaszczuk.
They internalised the rules of a country which locks asylum seekers up offshore for years and ignores them, overturns the land we live on for mining profits even as global warming threatens our quality of life, erodes our hard-won welfare network and education system and persists in underfunding public health systems — even as a pandemic looms. (Systems it evidently failed to reinforce, despite having nearly two years to do so during lockdowns.
The logical endpoint of offshore detention is lockdowns and quarantine camps. This has been coming for a while. For fuck’s sake, work the whole thing the fuck out.
I’ve been watching these Northern Rivers hippies, among other ostensibly ex-Left anti-lockdown types, run a line for the whole pandemic about how the Left “rolled over for big pharma and government”. They’d pat themselves on the back like they were the only true rebels left. (And to be fair, some centre-Left types did sound a little nauseating about authority at times.)
Score one for the Northern Rivers hippies.
Being isolated while desperately organising mutual aid measures and demanding collective public health measures from the top down never felt very thrilling. I’m sure that buying a cheap Anonymous mask to wear to some useless anti-lockdown spectacle must have been a real buzz.
“Antifa” can do their mutual aid, but no-one with even the briefest acquaintance with the history of the medical profession (and politicians) would be demanding collective public health measures, especially not from the top down.
But now the “rebels” have had their big demand realised and it turns out that it was just for the Government to act exactly like it always did. What a revolution. How counter-cultural.
I want the government punished for its crimes.
So if we want to be safe from the novel coronavirus, our real enemies live in Canberra. And I’m told we get to vote them out this year.
Fuck off.

The so-called “Great Reset” is the biggest issue on the planet right now, but what exactly is meant by “reset”? This reset has been accepted even by critics as an empty piece of corporatese jargon, but if you look at the actual definitions of “reset,” the program has even more sinister connotations.
What type of socio-political program would entail setting a society ‘back to its initial state’? A literal reading of this would mean the destruction of civilization itself, and this I believe is the unstated aim of the global oligarchy and their enablers.
How would this be achieved? The go-to solution for elites has been the weaponization of Muslims, and there’s no reason to believe that our rulers would abandon a tried-and-trusted formula.
This sounds excessively conspiratorial, and very dark. Are European governments actively trying to harm their citizens? Can this really be true? The fascist turn in regard to vaccine passports would seem to corroborate this.
The most damning piece of evidence is Auzterityfuhrer Merkel’s migrant invasion of 2015. Hailed by the Establishment press as a redemptive act of benevolence, more skeptical observers would have noted that swarming a continent with Middle Eastern “refugees” with Daesh on the loose didn’t seem like such a smart idea. Throw in the al-Qaeda massacre of Charlie Hebdo employees just months earlier, and any notion that Merkel was motivated by humanitarian motives (please refrain from laughing) disappears.
What, though, of the economic argument? That is, the need for cheap labour. This sounds plausible, and is pretty much the only reason that the agents of Capital import people into high-wage nations. My reply is: “What labour?” There are few suitable jobs for Somalis in Sweden, or Tunisians in Belgium; Muslim ghettos are almost entirely dependent on government handouts, making them even more pliable to any Deep State machinations.
The main attraction of Muslims as a de-civilizing force is their reliability. Muslims (Sunnis in particular) are pretty much the same wherever they are found, and thus tend to behave in the same way wherever they are shunted. Brainwashed and bamboozled by their barbarian ideology, no better de-civilizing force exists in the world today.
Recent decades have been pretty good in mainland Europe, but civilization there is brittle. For a long time one of the planet’s gloomiest regions, continental Europe dragged itself up to global supremacy, primarily due to the German intellectual revolutions. But there remains a strong undercurrent of fascism, and it would not take much for these people to revert to their primitive ways.
So, what is the goal? None other than the complete annihilation of human civilization, beginning in Europe with the Islamization of a whole continent. This is not done out of a love of Islam, but a desire to “reset” humanity to a zero point; that is, the modern world of fancy gadgets for the masses is out. This will be replaced by a semi-agricultural society, ruled over by a brutal feudal class.
Will the modern world disappear completely? No, but will be enjoyed by a small clique of oligarchs, and their technocratic appendages. Where will they live? The evidence points to New Zealand, perhaps even a small part of New Zealand.
This future looks grim. The age of growth is over. I’m not going to tell you what the solution is, because frankly I don’t know if there is one.
Michael Nesmith, an original member of The Monkees, died. Much derided for being a manufactured product, they influenced the naming of another “fake” musical outfit: Gorillaz.
I only realized this connection today, yet it was glaringly obvious. I enjoyed watching repeats of the TV show as a kid, so The Monkees were a small part of my life growing up; and while Gorillaz aren’t my favourite act, I am quite fond of Damon Albarn, and a number of their tracks.
We can be blindsided by the bleeding obvious. Remember all those obituaries from Italy during April 2020, and the frantic headlines about the dangers of the novel coronavirus? Nearly all of those people were in their 80s, many of them dying of other causes. Yet many of us (myself included) failed to see what was really happening. If we had noticed that Nature was doing what Nature has always done, things might have been very different.
Well, this is the Big One. The contrarians saw it, in particular the hardcore Marxists. Many others, though, failed; or worse, supported it. Those people have trashed their reputations, and have lost all credibility.
This episode has exposed a gaping maw at the heart of our supposed civilization. All those Nazi-themed movies, all the Hitler documentaries, all the constant fetishization of Nazi atrocities — all for nothing. The liberals, the “Leftists,” the Antifa goons never believed in their own propaganda. I always suspected this, but it is galling all the same. There is no sense of satisfaction about being right.
I won’t dwell on this. I am interested now in attempting to anticipate what the authoritarians will do in the future. I have to admit that I believe they will not go quietly, and will intensify their persecution of the unvaccinated and even vaccinated dissenters.
Why am I so pessimistic? I believe that as more and more vaccinated folks become unwell, as booster fatigue sets in, the COVID fanatics will not attempt to hold government officials and pharma giants to account, but simply do what they have done for most of 2021: blame the unvaccinated.
Dangerous times lay ahead for the Unwashed. Be prepared.

So, this is the New World Order. What will the next decade look like?
Firstly, we need to realize that there is no turning back; the Ruling Class have bared their fangs, as Mark Ames would say. Things are only going to get worse.
The Chinese have won. Not that “our” elites were ever going to resist. On the contrary, they have been itching to do this for a long time.
Australia has been engaging in low-level persecution (the disabled, unemployed, boat people) for a long time; now we are simply seeing a natural expansion of this. “First they came for the dolies…”
If you think that these people are labouring under a misapprehension, and would stop once they understand what they are doing, then it may be you labouring under a misapprehension. They have been waiting for this moment to strike — they know exactly what they are doing.
Will they start arresting people simply for resisting the NWO, for refusing to be vaccinated? This is where I differ from someone like CJ Hopkins: they will go full sicko mode, if they think they can get away with it. As I said, there is no turning back.
The suggestion of non-violent resistance by Hopkins will also fail, unless the majority (or a very large minority) take up the cause.
What do we do? I’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions.
This post is not a discussion of the morality of COVID vaccine passports — they are clearly immoral. I want to know how such a system could possibly work.
An app for a mobile phone is easy to create, but rather easily subverted. You could simply borrow a vaccinated person’s phone, or find a duplicate on the black market which will no doubt flourish as these policies are implemented. Policing this at large-scale events would also be unwieldy.
Facial recognition technology has been touted, but this also has flaws. Glasses are currently an issue with this technology; and painting your team’s colours on your face (or even sunscreen) may circumvent this.
Thinking this over the other day, I came to a dramatic and disturbing conclusion: By far the best way – and possibly the ONLY way – to implement a vaccine passport system is to place the passport IN THE VACCINES.
There are no doubt many people who have worked this out already. Have those producing vaccines already taken steps in this direction?
Contaminant in Moderna vaccines suspected to be metallic powder

I can only speculate on this subject. Time will tell what is going on here.
Led Zeppelin’s Stairway To Heaven is probably the most famous song in rock history, perhaps only rivalled by Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. The song is known for its advocacy of Satanism, especially when played in reverse.
A particularly interesting message from the backward version is this:
Someday… we’ll lose one line up… they’ve gotta leave for Satan
Led Zeppelin did indeed lose one of their line up: John Bonham. Bonham officially died of alcohol poisoning; this occurred in the house of known Satanist, Jimmy Page, nine years after the recording of Stairway To Heaven.
Is this a coincidence? The backmasked lyrics are certainly difficult to decipher — this is my interpretation, and thus highly subjective. If John Bonham died during a botched Satanic ritual, we will probably never know.
CORRECTION: “An inquest into John Bonham’s death was held at East Berkshire coroner’s court on October 18th where it was determined that Bonham had died from inhalation of his own vomit during sleep which led to pulmonary edema. (Pulmonary edema describes fluid accumulation in the lungs, which can cause respiratory failure.) The cause of death was put down as “consumption of alcohol”. A verdict of accidental death was arrived at and recorded.“

... the paradigm of absolute control, and that's why we started doing simple things, pointing out that we're meant to be in nature and be natural. And this is where we find the source that god made, to transcend the new world order and that's why they want to try to keep us out of it.
The above is a quote from Alex Jones, taken from Nick Lutsko’s Alex Jones Rants As An Indie Folk Song (the original title mentioned Bon Iver, who was no doubt aghast at the connection with Jones). It turned out to be one of the most prophetic statements of the modern age.
It would be hyperbole to say that Jones was right about everything; but he foresaw the left/liberal desire to imprison the entire population, which most people missed. He spoke against the nightmarish Islamic invasion of Europe, while the “Left” cheered it on.
What of the modern Left? What remains of it is totally discredited, with Anarchists and “antifascists” suffering the biggest dents to their credibility. These people don’t deserve to be anywhere near power. No sensible person would vote for the ALP again, after they facilitated and encouraged a grotesque attack on workers.
Who stood up? Phil Greaves. Who wrote articles for Infowars? Phil Greaves.
It all makes sense now.
I’ve been thinking a bit about the death of Rock, and the inevitable question arises: How much of Ye Olde Rocke (say, pre-1980) actually holds up? I will take a brief look at just a few of the biggest bands of that era, giving my personal untrained opinion.
THE BEATLES: They started out as pop idols, but they were rockers in the second half of their existence, so they have a place here. Were their albums any good? Rubber Soul is dogshit, and the White Album is massively over-rated. Sgt Pepper’s has that great album cover, but is rather weak musically. Their best effort was Magical Mystery Tour, though that is an EP with some ‘greatest hits’ tacked on.
THE ROLLING STONES: Famously spurned by the Grammys for a quarter century (a good sign, if you ask Homer Simpson), I have to say their work still rates — even if the guitar work is a little clunky.
THE WHO: Once acclaimed as the world’s loudest rock band, Daltrey’s lame vocals limited what the band could do. I guess they could say they were good at one thing (being loud).
AEROSMITH: After a solid but unspectacular 1970s, the group gained a second life in the mid-80s. Overall, one of the better rock groups that America has produced, but whether that reputation can be sustained on their pre-1980 work is the real question.
DEEP PURPLE: It’s dated, and a little screamy, but I didn’t mind listening to their stuff again. Not the worst, but not something I want to listen to every day.
BLACK SABBATH: I had a dream about Ozzy Osbourne a few nights back. Not fussed with Sabbath, a pretty ordinary outfit.
MOTORHEAD: Another act hampered by a poor vocalist. Honestly, a random bloke in your local pub could sing better than Lemmy, total shit.
CREAM: Hailed as the first-ever “supergroup,” I genuinely like these guys. Tick.
KISS: An abomination, truly a blight on human civilization. Not only did they make awful music, but Gene Simmons is one of the most repulsive creatures in showbiz.
LED ZEPPELIN: I could never really understand the love for these guys. It’s not terrible, but whenever I hear their stuff, I feel like I should be wearing bell-bottoms. Maybe I should play it backwards.
QUEEN: It’s kitsch and twee, but there’s something joyous about their pomposity. Helped by Freddie’s incredible voice, too. Hated at the time, yet more modern than most 70s bands.
Do the classics really deserve the status of classics? Probably not. But that’s just my opinion.
