The Billionaires Backing Geoengineering

Image
  The Billionaires Backing Geoengineering The belief that there is an agenda to alter the Earth’s climate was once relegated to the fringes of the conspiracy world. In more recent years however, geoengineering has gone mainstream. Not only are legacy media outlets like  NPR  and  Forbes  devoting coverage to the issue, there is an elite clique openly funding a wide array of geoengineering experiments across the globe in the name of saving the planet. Through a costly and concerted effort to buy favorable influence in the press,  Bill Gates  has been able to style himself as a tireless philanthropist who simply can’t give his money away fast enough. The truth is, unsurprisingly, much darker than that. Depending on who you ask, Gates’ true identity ranges from ruthless businessman to closeted eugenicist to cartoonish villain and as part of the billionaire’s latest philanthropic charade he appears to be doing his best Mr. Burns impression. In one better-known episode of The Simpsons the d

MSM calls for “new definition of free speech”

  MSM calls for “new definition of free speech” New buzzwords in the mainstream media bubble spell trouble for those outside it Kit Knightly Part of the main duty of OffGuardian is to troll through the masses of media output and try and pick up patterns. Sometimes the patterns are subtle, a gentle urging behind the paragraphs. Sometimes they’re more like a sledgehammer to the face. This has been face-hammer week. In fact, it’s been a face-hammer year. From “flatten the curve” to “the new normal” to “the great reset”, it’s not been hard to spot the messaging going on since the start of the “pandemic”. And that distinct lack of disguise has carried over into other topics, too. We pointed out, a few days ago, the sudden over-use of the phrase  “domestic terrorism”  preparing us for what is, almost certainly, going to be a truly horrendous piece of new legislation once Biden is in office. Well, the buzz-phrase doing the rounds in the wake of Donald Trump being banned from the internet is 

A Short History Of How Anthony Fauci Has Kept Failing Up Since 1984

  A Short History Of How Anthony Fauci Has Kept Failing Up Since 1984 The media buried long-standing scientific concerns that Anthony Fauci had been ‘sucking money away from work to understand and counter natural disease outbreaks.’ Ilya Feoktistov  In 2003, terrorism was a more immediate national danger than infectious diseases. Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) had just  redirected  $117 million from infectious diseases to fund a new anthrax vaccine effort in response to the anthrax attacks that happened a week after 9/11. The millions were just a small part of the $1.8 billion Fauci had poured into defense from bioterrorist attacks over the preceding two years. More than half of those funds were devoted to anthrax and smallpox alone. In 2004, Fauci  launched  the $5.6 billion “Project Bioshield,” the National Institutes of Health’s biggest outlay for a single research issue until then. Some microbiology researchers at the time, however

Baby Social Media

  Baby Social Media     Janu Salvador Dalí  The discovery of America by Christopher Columbus  1959     And just like that, Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg belatedly found they had fallen on their own swords, as these were already sticking out of their backs. Let’s see it as poetic justice. They thought they had the power- after all, they’re just private companies!- to restrict Donald Trump’s access to their organizations, and then ban him altogether, only to find that they themselves will now be restricted and perhaps even banned as a result. They figured since most of the world doesn’t like Trump, it would applaud the moves as much as the US Democratic party does. But most of the world doesn’t. What it sees, what its leaders see, is a threat to everyone else’s freedom of speech, not just Trump’s. Those countries and their leaders have been suspicious of the might of US tech companies for longer, and they will now look elsewhere for social media functionality. It’s no accident that Fac
