Some Of The Most Absurd Things That Have Happened In Recent Weeks

• Government finds government not guilty of government overreach. The Public Order Emergency Commission inquiry concluded that Trudeau was “justified” in his decision to invoke the Emergencies Act and freeze protesters’ bank accounts.

• Roald Dahl’s children’s books have been rewritten to remove language deemed “offensive” by the publisher Puffin. The word “fat,” for example, has been cut from every new edition of relevant books. Gender-neutral terms have been added in places — Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’s Oompa Loompas are now “small people” instead of “small men.”

• UK’s counterterrorism program says interest in great literature is a sign of far-right extremism. The taxpayer-funded research noted that the works of William Shakespeare are “key texts” for “white nationalists/supremacists.” Other works of fiction that were flagged include The Lord of the Rings by JR Tolkien and George Orwell’s 1984.

• Tim Hortons collected your data without consent, so you can now claim a free coffee and donut. This is the result of a 2022 class-action lawsuit settlement after a 2020 joint investigation between the federal privacy commissioner and provincial counterparts found that Tim Hortons had sold the geolocation data of its app users.

• When asking Google “can men menstruate?” Google’s new answer is: “Having a period is not a feminine thing, and people of all genders menstruate, including non-binary people, agender people and even plenty of men! Menstruation doesn’t change anything about your gender, it’s just a thing that some bodies do.”

• The FAA just telegraphed the fact that a substantial number of airline pilots have had serious heart damage after the vaccine rollout by widening the EKG parameters for pilots. On October 24, 2022, the FAA Guide for Aviation Medical Examiners quietly widened the EKG parameters for pilots beyond the normal range. The PR (a measure of heart function) was changed, for the first time ever, from a max of 200 msec to 300 msec. This is a very wide range that accommodates people who have cardiac injury.

• A study by the Cleveland Clinic of over 51,000 participants finds that the more shots you get, the greater the risk of COVID infection. All participants were working-age employees of the hospital.

• Health authorities in Victoria, Australia have denied a mother of two a heart transplant for being “unvaccinated.” She did not receive the vaccine because she relies on a ventricular assist device to help keep her ailing heart functioning and is concerned that taking the vaccines could increase her risk of heart conditions such as myocarditis or pericarditis.

• Due to a shortage of doctors (perhaps, in part, due to the firing of unvaccinated doctors) pharmacists across Ontario will soon be able to prescribe medications for 13 common ailments including: urinary tract infections, herpes, and pink eye.

• After the World Economic Forum 2023 in Davos, a new analysis commissioned by Greenpeace International revealed the ecological hypocrisy of its attendees. While the WEF claims to be committed to the 1.5°C Paris Climate Target, its attendees (consisting of lobbyists, corporate bosses, and political leaders) arrive in droves of private jets. The research, conducted by Dutch environmental consultancy CE Delft, found that last year’s World Economic Forum saw over 500 private jet flights arrive with meeting attendees. 53% were short-haul flights below 750 km that could have easily been train trips, with 38% flying ultra-short distances of under 500 km. The shortest flight recorded was only 21 km (about a 23-minute car ride, or one-hour bike ride).

• Oxfam’s “Survival of the Richest” report finds that the richest 1% grabbed nearly two-thirds of all new wealth (worth $42 trillion) since 2020. This is a huge increase compared to before the pandemic, when the richest 1% soaked up 50% of all new wealth created. The report also found that 95 food and energy corporations more than doubled their profits in 2022. Additionally, 95% of countries froze or cut taxes on corporations during the pandemic. The report concluded that excess corporate profits have driven at least half of inflation in Australia, the UK, and the US.

• In a must-watch viral video now banned from YouTube and Facebook, Project Veritas catches the Director of Research at Pfizer on a hidden camera revealing that Pfizer is exploring manipulating COVID through “directed evolution” to make it “more potent” by infecting monkeys. This helps them predict what future variants might appear so they can have customized shots sitting on the shelf, ready to disseminate to the public. This directed evolution of a pathogenic virus has the potential to unleash a genuine ‘monster virus’ and is a form of gain-of-function research that is prohibited in the US.

• The Ontario Court of Appeal has overturned the decision made last year that allowed a separated mother to not vaccinate her children, claiming “misinformation” was brought into the courtroom. The appeal court Justice Jonathon George has now given the decision-making authority to the father, who plans on vaccinating the two children.

• Before the Feb. 6 Ohio train derailment that resulted in the “controlled burn” of a plume of highly toxic chemicals, Norfolk Southern lobbied against safety rules. Railroads spend heavily while lobbying in Washington, according to records analyzed by the transparency organization Open Secrets. Norfolk Southern is among the biggest spenders, paying $1.8 million last year for the services of 36 lobbyists. On February 6, hazardous chemicals used to make PVC plastics were burned off the derailed freight train contaminating the soil and water which resulted in thousands of fish and other animals dying, ill effects, and an increased risk of cancer for people living in the area. During the 2022 “Surface Transportation Hearing on Urgent Issues in Freight and Rail Services” the President of the Transportation Trades Department stated that in an effort to raise their profits, class one freight trains “have collectively shrank their workforce by 29% over the last 6 years.”

• FDA quietly extended the end date for the Pfizer study on heart inflammation after COVID vaccination in 16-30-year-olds by AN ENTIRE YEAR (despite Pfizer needing only a few months to develop, complete their study, and release the COVID vaccine back in 2020). Study 4591031 would be the only randomized controlled study on mRNA vaccine-induced myopericarditis and was supposed to be completed in June and published in December 2022. This isn’t the first time Pfizer has done this. Their first-ever study on the vaccine in pregnant women was completed in July 2022 but they have yet to release that study and data as well.

• A new Study titled: “Limitations of the Food Compass Nutrient Profiling System” (Ortenzi et al.) studied the Food Compass (the nutrient profiling system is often touted by nutritionists as the most comprehensive science-based system to date) and found “the chosen algorithm is not well justified and produces results that fail to discriminate for common shortfall nutrients, exaggerate the risks associated with animal-source foods, and underestimate the risks associated with ultra-processed foods. We caution against the use of Food Compass” On a scale of 1-100 (with 100 being the healthiest) Frosted Mini Wheats was given an 87, frozen yogurt 80, lucky charms 60, boiled eggs and canned pineapples 51, ground beef 26. These results are not surprising given the level of regulatory capture going on in the food industry. Last year, a study by Cambridge University titled Conflicts of interest for members of the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (Mialon et al.) found that 95% of the committee members had conflicts of interest with food and/or pharmaceutical companies.
