An astounding outbreak of common sense has appeared in Europe, spreading especially to all the countries of Scandinavia, I am pleased to report.
England has already lifted restrictions. Countries finding common sense, then letting their people out from under the jackboot of Covid restrictions include:
Denmark
Netherlands
Finland
Norway
Sweden
I do hope this emergence of rational thought visible in northern Europe is the beginning of a worldwide outbreak of common sense over the next few weeks.
There are elites at a lower levels of the elitism hierarchy who still have sufficient privilege to be exempt from all Covid rules. Or maybe like the tip-top-level elitists, they also are fully convinced there is no danger from Covid. Or perhaps they just enjoy flaunting their power over you, your kids, and me.
Hopefully there will come a day when these flaming hypocrites will be forced to explain themselves. Not likely to ever happen, but I can dream.
For today’s round of point-and-laugh-out-loud amusement:
California redistricting commission celebrates without masks.
Article wonders if public health officials are “dangerously close” to wiping out all their credibility…ya’ think?
Faculty and staff at Northern Illinois University party on without masks while they prohibit students from even eating or drinking while sitting in class watching remote video feed.
By the way, ridicule and laughter is the most appropriate way to respond to the non-ending list of flaming hypocrites we read about every other day.
Here are several more examples of our elitist elite rulers who do not see any danger from the coronavirus pandemic and therefore do not need to follow any of the rules they dictate you and I must follow.
For your point-and-laugh-out-loud amusement today:
Gov. Gavin Newsom maskless in public. Again. Multiple times at football playoff game. San Francisco and L.A. mayors also maskless.
British Prime Minister claims complete ignorance of any law violation at the weekly parties at #10 Downing St.
Yeah, the research wizards at the Ag Department concluded food inflation in 2021 was exact same as 2020. We will see even smaller price increases in 2022.
US Department of Agriculture – 1/28/22 – 2021 retail food price inflation continued at the same pace as 2020, but varied among food categories – In a clever disinformation effort, the alleged economists at the Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture claim food prices increase of 3.5% during 2021 was the same rate of increase as in 2020. The mere 3.5% during 2021 is only slightly higher than the historical average of 2% from 2000 through 2019.
In newsflash to everyone who actually buys groceries or goes to a restaurant, food prices barely increased in 2021.
Because of the pushback this article is already receiving, it will likely be memory-holed momentarily so I will quote a few parts of the article. Will quote the entire article at the end of this post.
The headline information:
“Retail food prices increased by 3.5 percent in 2021, equal to the rate in 2020 and greater than the historical annual average of 2.0 percent from 2000 to 2019. Of the 12 food categories depicted in the chart, six showed slower price increases in 2021 compared with 2020.”
Prices for half the food you buy are coming down. Cool, huh?
A study of all Covid infections in Denmark over a three-week period of time shows vaccine effectiveness against Omicron not only evaporates but goes negative after three months. Yes, negative.
Unsafe Space on Substack – 1/19/22 – Do The Covid Shots Work Against Omicron?– The short answer, according to a study of all cases in Denmark occurring during three weeks last fall?
Covid shots only work against Omicron for around 30 days, falling off to minimal effectiveness at 90 days. After that you’d be better off not having a shot.
According to that research, sitting here in late January 2022, if you got your double shots earlier than October 2021 you are wide open to catching omicron. That might explain why almost everybody you know has been sick in the last month, regardless of their vaccination status.
More details…
Research
The research report, which can be found here, looked at all PCR-confirmed Covid infections in Denmark between 11/20/21 and 12/12/21.
The researchers calculated vaccine effectiveness (VE) for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, with the calculation broken out into 30 day increments since full effectiveness. Fourteen days after the second shot is when one gains full effectiveness.
Researchers further calculated VE against the Delta and Omicron variants.
Gathering in person is critical for the body of Christ.
Just in case the Holy Spirit’s directions to us to gather together is insufficient support for that comment, Karl Vaters provides a few more reasons in his 11/18/21 article:
Recently came across his twitter post linking back to that article. His discussion was healing.
I heartily encourage you to read the full article. I will merely quote his key statements. Please read his explanation of each point.
As you read this post and his article, please remember those religious leaders who bowed to the Emperor.
Forgive, but never forget, those who used scissors to cut Acts 5:30 out of their Bible: “We must obey God rather than man!” and then proceeded to willfully bend the knee.
Those people who tried so hard and for so long to crush me, you, our children, the economy, and our freedoms are backpedaling as fast as they can.
Those alleged leaders who put so much effort into grinding the heel of their boot into your face and mine are positioning themselves to evade the accountability they so richly deserve.
Do not forget who tried to take away your health, wealth, and freedom.
Forgive, but do not ever forget.
DIscussion for today:
Starbucks drops vaccination requirement for their 349K staff.
GE drops vaccination requirement for their 174k staff.
Boeing drops vaccination requirement for their 141k staff.
Amtrak, Union Pacific, and BNSF all drop vaccination requirement for their staff.
A year ago this would have gotten your on-line accounts banned and gotten you cancelled: CDC acknowledges prior infection provides more protection than vaccinations.
England lifts ALL covid restrictions. Yes, all.
WHO recommends all international travel be resumed and no more checking of vaccination status before international travel.
It would appear that a growing number of alleged leaders in the business world have slowly come to the conclusion that killing their company is not a bright idea. Corporate suicide is not a promising strategy to increase value of those juicy stock options.
As mentioned in part 1, if you find lots of sarcasm along with point-and-laugh-out-loud ridicule in these two posts, my apologies. I really wish I had the ability to pour on the heads of our supposed leaders the full dose of ridicule these ‘leaders’ have so richly earned.
When you read below of the about-face by GE, keep in mind how harshly they dealt with staff who filed for a religious exemption.
At issue is all the covid vaccines were either developed or produced using fetal stem cells somewhere in the process. This is deeply offensive for some people of faith.
For anyone who requested a religious accommodation, GE gave the person a list of about 20 medicines and asked if the person had ever used any of them. The handout asserted all those items were either developed, tested, or produced using fetal stem cell tissue. The handout then asked the applicant to provide a theological explanation for the distinction between using any one of those meds and getting a covid vaccination.
That is some serious hardball.
Now?
GE says never mind – don’t get a shot if you don’t feel like it for any reason. No further questions will be asked.
Those people who tried so hard and for so long to crush me, you, our children, the economy, and our freedoms are backpedaling as fast as they can.
Those alleged leaders who put so much effort into grinding the heel of their boot into your face and mine are positioning themselves to evade the accountability they so richly deserve.

A year ago this would have gotten your on-line account banned and gotten you cancelled: CDC acknowledges prior infection provides more protection than vaccinations.
England lifts ALL covid restrictions. Yes, all.
Ireland is dropping most covid restrictions.
WHO recommends all international travel be resumed and no more checking of vaccination status before international travel.
In part 2:
Starbucks drops vaccination requirement for their 349K staff.
GE drops vaccination requirement for their 174k staff.
Boeing drops vaccination requirement for their 141k staff.
Amtrak, Union Pacific, and BNSF all drop vaccination requirement for their staff.
By the way, if you detect rounds of sarcasm along with point-and-laugh-out-loud ridicule in these two posts, my apologies. I really wish I had the ability to pour on the heads of our supposed leaders the full dose of unrestrained ridicule our ‘leaders’ have so richly earned.
