Silencing Conversation
I started this blog to point out that governments all over the world were lying about COVID. I have kept the blog going because COVID is not over. It will not be over until the pandemic planners are in prison. That is an end point I doubt we will ever see so I could be at this for a very long time.
With the passage of time, it has become difficult to dwell on only COVID. There is so much evidence of harm that it is almost not newsworthy anymore when another study gets published. Public sentiments have also moved on. Many people are resigned to accepting that the criminals will never be punished. Still, I persist, and I did have some COVID related things to discuss today but the events of this week have overshadowed anything I was going to say about COVID.
Two things happened this week in the US that are too important to ignore. First the murder of a Ukrainian refugee leaked despite the best efforts of the media to make sure no one would ever know.
Brown had stabbed the defenceless Zarutska in the neck entirely unprovoked. Yet what shocks most about this gruesome murder in Charlotte, North Carolina is not just the savagery of the attack, but also the apathy of the victim’s fellow passengers.
The murder had happened more than 2 weeks before the media was forced to cover the story. A brutal murder of a defenseless woman was covered up for 2 weeks not because it was not newsworthy but because it would cause conversations the left did not want to have. Preventing conversations is a tactic of the left and it was only days later when they did it again by assassinating Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk was the king of conversation. He gleefully enters what for conservatives is the lion’s den, college campuses. Kirk would challenge the lunatic beliefs force fed to college students by the left-wing activists masquerading as educators. The left hated him for it. What they hated most was how effective he was. Kirk caused too many students to question liberal orthodoxy.
The left tried to marginalize Charlie and when that didn’t work, they silenced him with a bullet. His killer was a young man from a conservative background who was radicalized after only one term at university. That illustrates just how toxic these environments are and why what Charlie was doing was so important.
Immediately after the shooting there was a predictable response. The left celebrated while still claiming that they were somehow the victims and not Charlie Kirk. The right declared they would pick up Charlie’s mantle. I believe the left were happy and revels in their own self-declared victimhood. Their delusions will not be changed by a dose of reality like a shooting. Yet I have serious doubt that the right will continue Charles’s fight.
10 years ago, 2 Muslims were upset about a conversation the staff at Charlie Hedbo were trying to have so the Muslims killed the cartoonists. The whole world declared that they were in solidarity with the victims. It became, briefly, fashionable to declare Je Suis Charlie (I am Charlie). But what happened? What did all that solidarity amount to? Not a single other publication had the balls to publish the offending cartoons. Now 10 years later Muslims block streets in a show of dominance and not a single government has dared to do anything about it. The liberal party of Canada trampled people with horses for blocking streets. They even froze bank accounts of anyone who dared support the street blockers. Justin Trudeau was a preening peacock in front of people he knew would not harm him. He is still silent about Muslims blocking streets.
Fear works. That is why our governments went to such great lengths to frighten people over COVID. Terrorists understand this as well. No matter how much bravado people show after an attack the terrorists understand that it is just for show. Their objectives will be met. People will shut up and take it. I hope this time it will be different. However, history makes me doubt that it will.
