Former CDC Director: American Society Never Going Back to ‘Normal’
By Ben Bartee - February 25, 2021
In the beginning, to counter the public backlash, Anthony Fauci and Co. took a conciliatory tone. They assuaged Americans’ well-founded concerns. Eager to quash growing discontent, the medical establishment spent 2020 on a rhetorical tightrope:
“We’ve got to have a delicate balance of carefully and prudently going towards normality and opening up at the same time that we contain and not allow these surges.”
-Anthony Fauci, July 2020
Over and over, Fauci and Co. promised the lockdown of the economy and social life would be imminently lifted once the emerging virus was contained. The lockdowns were — in their original rollout and PR framing — temporary, emergency measures to prevent imminent loss of life.
What a difference a year makes.
The ruling class, via the corporate press that services it, has now dramatically altered the parameters of the lockdowns:
“The ease with which the coronavirus spreads, the emergence of new strains and poor access to vaccines in large parts of the world mean Covid-19 could shift from a pandemic disease to an endemic one, implying ''lasting modifications to personal and societal behavior.”''
-Wall St. Journal, Feb 2021
Former CDC director Thomas Friedan – via the nominally “conservative” Wall Street Journal– dropped the shoe that the grassroots right has warned would drop since the lockdowns began:
“Going through the five phases of grief, we need to come to the acceptance phase that our lives are not going to be the same. ''I don’t think the world has really absorbed the fact that these are long-term changes.”''
-Thomas Friedan, CDC Director, Feb 2021

Friedan and the WSJ are here to ensure that you absorb that lesson, internalize it, and, ultimately, regurgitate it to cull others. In this way, the prisoner erects his own prison – of his own volition.
“The nature of psychological compulsion is such that those who act under constraint remain under the impression that they are acting on their own initiative. The victim of mind-manipulation does not know that he is a victim. To him the walls of his prison are invisible, and he believes himself to be free. That he is not free is apparent only to other people.”
-Aldous Huxley
Not a day has passed since early 2020 that the corporate media has not gone to great lengths — alternating between shaming, threatening, and dangling phantom “carrot” rewards for compliance in our faces – to aggressively market safety during the pandemic. Everything they do is for safety, they are diligent to emphasize.
Their motivations are not, in Anthony Fauci’s and Joe Biden’s carefully crafted narrative, to atomize the population by keeping them in perpetual fear by way of the well-trodden psychological tactic of stress-induced Pavlovian conditioning, hence facilitating greater social control. Rather, it’s for safety.
Protecting safety, after all, is what heroes do.
How convenient, then, that those who oppose heroes are villains – even a small child can process and internalize the narrative. The corporate media’s strawman – the filthy, illiterate MAGA riff-raff flaunting science on a mission to genocide grandmothers — is fully erect.
Moving forward, the stage is set to mete out social justice. Cue the outrage “journalism.” Just look at these degenerates, read the chyrons and faces of news actors.
“No, your teenager’s boyfriend or girlfriend cannot come over during the pandemic,” the CNN headline reads. It’s just another in a long, lone line of continual reminders to the subjugated classes that nothing will ever return to the way it was before March 2020.
Visiting your boyfriend or girlfriend is what disgusting MAGA mouth-breathers do. It’s literally violence, in the refrain of the social justice movement.
“It’s a tough time to be young and in love,” says San Francisco therapist Jessica England.
It’s a tough time to be anything, now that we’ve assumed the role of Pavlov’s salivating dogs, begging for food under the watchful eye of the ruling class.

Most everyone knows about Russian psychologist Ivan Pavlov and his contributions to the behavioral sciences – most notably, that animal behavior is highly open to conditioning.
Pavlov’s real practical revelation to the ruling class, though, was the concept of fear conditioning and its remarkable ability to suspend the analytical and decision-making capacity of its victims.
Replace “food” with images and descriptions and predictions of mass suffering. Replace “salivation” with “fear.” In continual states of heightened fear-induced stress, Pavlov concluded, the animal paralyzed by fear is even more susceptible than usual to manipulation and misdirection – anything to neutralize the perceived threat and extinguish the fear.
If fear won’t induce compliance, more material tactics will — the oligarchs have endless levers to pull.
Moving forward, assuming you resist the Pavlovian fear conditioning, your deplatformed avatar will have no voice on social media (the new town square). Whether you nominally retain Constitutional protections of “free speech” – the constant refrain of the woke mob to justify corporate censorship – will be functionally irrelevant to your ability to express yourself.
Beyond your digital erasure, your physical movement will be limited – no plane rides for the unvaccinated! Your children will be removed from government school. You won’t find gainful employment.
How far will the shunning go? The corporate press now regularly floats the idea of denying medical care to people who refuse a COVID vaccine. “Conservative” French PM Jean Castex proposed legislation to bar the unvaccinated from using public transportation.
They will squeeze, squeeze, squeeze. The pressure – social, economic, and physical – will not relent.

There was a long silence.
''‘I claim them all,’ said the Savage at last.”''

Image Shows School Band ‘Socially Distanced’ Inside Human Tents
Clown world strikes again.
Published by Paul Joseph Watson - Thursday, Feb 25, 2021 - 8:10
An image shows students at a school in Wenatchee, Washington State socially distanced inside what look like human tents as they perform in a band.
The picture appears to show two girls playing saxophones while trapped inside the awning-like structures, while others in the background play flute.
According to the article, ''“You can’t see them smiling beneath the masks,” but the kids are happy to be back at school.''
The article quotes Wenatchee Principal Eric Anderson, who celebrates the fact that the school environment has been carefully tailored to ensure that students never remove their face coverings.

''“We really have an environment in this building where there is never a reason where a kid has to take their mask off,”'' he said.
That’s presumably why the children in the image have been made to stand inside the tents, because they have to remove their masks to play the instruments.
Growing up in a world where they are forcibly isolated from each other, starved of physical contact and cannot properly discern facial reactions while having to wear humiliating human tents.
What could possibly go wrong?

From Our Neighbor
Less that 10% of the average person's daily information input is direct sense experience of the natural world. What we imagine we know about the greater, outside world, our fellow humans and the universe is all acquired from TV "news" or "entertainment" programming - TV, movies, games VR and MR are how we form our understanding of greater surrounding social, economic and political reality.
We are entirely dependent on the integrity of MSM/legacy media for our understanding of the reality we share, and legacy media has betrayed us, engaging in massive deception and running 'psyops,' or 'Information Operations,' stories which use information in ways engineered to divide, confuse and terrify us.
Over 90% of all the information we take in about the world, about our reality, our fellow citizens, friends and neighbors, comes to us through a legacy media or big tech driven SCREEN.
*The average American household has only 2.75 people, but 3 TVs and 6 Internet devices.
*The average American family spends more money each month on media consumption than on groceries or electricity.
*The average American consumes 12-15 aggregate hours of digital media per day.
*The average American child consumes more than 10 hours of digital media per day.
*The average American smartphone is checked every 6-12 waking minutes.
With the emergence nonlinear networked communication it became possible to control individual and group information environments at all levels. Modern technologies have made "kinetic war" obsolete.
Information warfare destroys people and countries from within. By controlling the minds of citizens, by exploiting conditioned response with prepared information packages targeted individuals or nations can be (and have been) brought to take ANY specified action (including 'genocide') voluntarily.
Non-linear or Information war tactics involve turning enemy nations against themselves by infiltrating and subverting moral values and gradually degrading the whole information infrastructure, from popular entertainment to text books. Occult materials (eg. Catcher in the Rye) are introduced into high school required reading lists. False history and false flags arelegitimized, self-destructive behaviors are promoted as fashionable, mental illnesses and perversions like pedophilia are normalized by stages, while subversive 'educational' programs like "common core" are promoted to turn kids off learning.
Cultist media gradually, over decades, reduces the public vocabulary, promotes social division, emphasizing inequities, fanning the flames of old grievances, using false flag terrorism to foster or rekindle resentments, falsifying historical records to provide evidence for a shameful cult created US history that never happened. Destroying the story of a nation destroys that nation; the nation falls apart.
Mind war, non linear war, is a highly developed form of conflict, with tested doctrines and a protean tactical repertoire. We don't hear about IO, mind war and it's power and tactics because our entire information distribution infrastructure; the entertainment industry and social media/ tech companies are all controlled by a subversive confederacy of deep state criminals.
It is well to remember we have ALL been deceived. Some may learn sooner, some learn later; but whenever you do, remember fellow citizens still trapped in the matrix of lies and fears and taboos created by sophisticated IO operators for purposes of social control.

Protests rock Armenia as PM slams ‘coup’ attempt: Live updates
''Nikol Pashinyan is under mounting pressure to quit over his handling of the Nagorno-Karabakh war, but his supporters have come out in force.''

25 Feb 2021 - Updated: 2 hours ago
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has accused top military officers of attempting a coup after they demanded that he step down, adding fuel to months-long protests calling for his resignation.
Anti-government sentiment swelled last November, after the conflict with Azerbaijan over the Nagorno-Karabakh region ended, and gathered pace again this week. The conflict saw thousands killed on both sides and swathes of territory in and around the mountainous region ceded to Azerbaijan.
With pressure on Pashinyan mounting as protesters decry his handling of that war, the military on Thursday issued a statement calling for his resignation.
Pashinyan responded by firing Onik Gasparyan, the head of the army’s General Staff.
He then took to the streets of the capital, Yerevan, in a bid to rally supporters behind him – a move that worked, with thousands coming out to back him.
But throngs of opposition demonstrators also protested in Yerevan on Thursday, chanting “Nikol, you traitor!” and “Nikol, resign!” while blocking streets and paralysing traffic around the capital.

“The war [in Nagorno-Karabakh] is over,” Russian state news agency RIA Novosti quoted Aliyev as saying.
“If someone lives with revanchist thoughts, he will see this fist, it is in place, and our patience should not be tested,” he said. “We will never again allow any threat to us or our citizens who will return to the liberated lands.”

Russia calls for a peaceful resolution
Russia says it is concerned by the growing political tensions in Armenia, where it has a military base.
Speaking to reporters on a conference call, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov called on the military and Pashinyan’s government to resolve their differences peacefully and within the framework of the constitution.
Armenia is a close Russian ally.
