What if COVID-Zero and the vaccine exit strategy is merely the global state-sanctioned equivalent of a drug dealer creating dependency among its customers to keep pushing more drugs?
What if it was all just a way of convincing society of the need for subscription-based "immunity as a service"? The subscription-based business model (or some version of it) is all the rage these days in the corporate world to create loyal captive audiences that generate reliable money streams, forever. Subscriptions are not just for your cable TV and gym membership anymore.
Everything has been redesignated as a "consumable"
- Netflix did it with movies.
- Spotify did it with music.
- Microsoft did it with its Office suite.
- Adobe did it with the Photoshop editing suite.
- The smartphone industry did it with phones that need to be replaced every 3 to 5 years.
- The gaming industry did it with video games.
- Amazon is doing it with books (i.e. Kindle Unlimited).
- The food industry is doing it with meal delivery services (i.e. Hello Fresh).
- Uber is doing it with subscription-based ride sharing.
- Coursera is doing it with online education.
- Duolingo and Rosetta Stone are doing it with language learning.
- Zoom is doing it with online meetings.
- Monsanto and its peers did it to farmers with patented seed technology, which cannot legally be replanted, and is lobbying to try to legalize the use of terminator seed technology (GMO seeds that are sterile in the second generation to prevent replanting).
- The healthcare industry is doing it with concierge medical services, fitness tracking apps (Fitbit), sleep-tracking apps, and meditation apps.
- The investment industry is doing it with farmland, with investors owning the land and leasing it back to farmers in a kind of modern revival of the sharecropping system. (Bill Gates is the largest farmland owner in the USA -- are you surprised?)
- Blackrock and other investment firms are currently trying to do it with homes to create a permanent class of renters.
And public health authorities and vaccine makers have been trying to do it with flu vaccines for years, but we've been stubbornly uncooperative. Not anymore.
Remember when the World Economic Forum predicted in 2016 that by 2030 all products would become services? And remember their infamous video in which they predicted that "You will own nothing. And you will be happy."? Well, the future is here. This is what it looks like. The subscription-based economy. And apparently it now also includes your immune system in a trade-off for access to your life.
The operational headquarters for the fight against coronavirus infection is working with relevant departments to draft laws on the introduction of mandatory QR codes in all cafes, all transport and all shops. Their introduction to the State Duma will be announced additionally, the headquarters told reporters on Thursday.
"The operational headquarters, together with the relevant departments, are working on these bills. We will additionally inform the media about their introduction to the State Duma," the headquarters said.
On Thursday, RBC reported that the authorities will introduce two bills on mandatory QR codes in transport, cafes and shops, and the measure will be in effect until June 2022 and could be prolonged further.
Considering that totally vaccinated are 30-35% now and it is horrible mess and huge crowds in every place related to vaccination, people are forced to spend days standing in this huge crowds or they will be thrown out of their work otherwise.
Now they will be not allowed to buy even food. And won't be able to travel to work or to hospital even.
All large food stores are already accessible only via QR code and small stores also if they are located inside trade center.
We are witnessing unprecedented attack on basic freedoms.
We want them [oil and gas companies] to go bankrupt if we are to fight climate change.

At YouTube, we strive to be a place where creators of all sizes and backgrounds can find and share their voice. To ensure that YouTube promotes respectful interactions between viewers and creators, we introduced several features and policies to improve their experience. And earlier this year, we experimented with the dislike button to see whether or not changes could help better protect our creators from harassment, and reduce dislike attacks — where people work to drive up the number of dislikes on a creator’s videos.
We're making the dislike counts private across YouTube, but the dislike button is not going away. This change will start gradually rolling out today.
As part of this experiment, viewers could still see and use the dislike button. But because the count was not visible to them, we found that they were less likely to target a video’s dislike button to drive up the count. In short, our experiment data showed a reduction in dislike attacking behavior1. We also heard directly from smaller creators and those just getting started that they are unfairly targeted by this behavior — and our experiment confirmed that this does occur at a higher proportion on smaller channels.
We don't need conflicts, they say :-)
The great energy crisis in China has accelerated decision-making on the future of nuclear power. The new plan calls for the construction of 150 new nuclear reactors in the country over the next 15 years. This inspired mining companies around the world, but immediately led to signs of uranium shortages. In fact, China will double the number of nuclear reactors built worldwide since the 1980s.

On Tuesday, in a televised address to the nation, French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans to build new nuclear power plants in the country. The announcement was made five months before the next presidential elections in France and can be considered part of Macron's new election program. When taking office earlier, he promised to reduce France's dependence on nuclear power plants from 75% to 50% by 2035. But in recent months, everything has changed.
Big issue with all this plans is that we don't have enough uranium for them.
Wind and solar power could meet around 85 percent of US electricity needs, according to a paper published in Nature Communications. Batteries, capacity overbuilding and other storage options could increase that figure.
A blend of wind and solar power should be enough to meet most of the current energy needs in "advanced, industrialized nations," according to the study. Researchers from the University of California, Irvine (UCI), China’s Tsinghua University, the Carnegie Institution for Science and Caltech looked at 39 years of hourly energy demand data from 42 countries to determine whether there's enough wind and solar resources to meet requirements.
This "science" guys are totally nuts as they write stuff that is requested from them according to the grant they got.
