it messed up a lot of people with heart problems and it takes years to get over it none of these people had such issues before the Vax
My neighbor was jogging 2 miles most days since he retired. Tall and thin, non smoker etc.
Took the VAX and began having health problems requiring hospitalization, also took all 3 boosters. Now he gets around with a walker and looks spent.
Doctors are telling him he has long Covid.
I believe he has vaccine damage.
At my last physical my doctor recommended 4 different vaccines and staten drugs. I turned all of them down and increased the days I eat oatmeal which rapidly drops cholesterol.

FWIW I grew up less than a mile from NIH
Had, have friends, neighbors and family that work there and have worked there. And know several top researchers who were very informative about how things get done.
When something new comes along, they bomb it with everything can find to see what happens. Inc approved and proven drugs of all kinds.
When a new compound is found in nature, they bomb everything with it to see what happens.

Batman V Superman
Dawn of Justice
This might be the one that was recut by Zack Snyder who was pulled away to a different project.
Lets see, dark, a little of the psycho thriller as to the forces driving the Bat an Superman, Lex Luthor character is somewhat shallow sociopath. Not sure why he wanted to off the bat or super, other than to do it......
It is a well produced watch, good vid and sound production, lots of action.
Perhaps deeper meaning will come to me on my second cup of coffee in the morrow.
FWIW I have plowed through several movies that are worse in the past couple of weeks.

Ivermectin was never an FDA approved treatment for Covid 19 , therefore it would not be considered an existing treatment. The use of Ivermectin lacked scientific evidence of being a beneficial treatment for Covid 19 as was hydroxychloraquine .So yes you are correct , thousands of ill informed patients died unnecessarily taking drugs that were ineffective ,whilst effective vaccines sat on shelves . Conspiracy theories and misinformation should not be tolerated during times of grave public health concern, but because of free speech that this great nation affords its people, much latitude was given to dangerous propaganda.
Actually Ivermectin and hydroxichlorquine (aka quinine) have passed all tests, have FDA approval and every other country in the world for lots of different uses.
And have been in the market a long time with lots of proven data aka safe and effective. Qunine is in tonic water and has been used for hundreds of years for treating viruses and parasites. Especially when combined with a common element called zinc which is the bodies primary anti-viral agent.
The VAX was not tested nor approved by the FDA, passed no tests or field trials and those that were conducted have been proven to have been below standards designed to get the desired result. Also called a fraud.
It was injected, in many cases via coercion, into hundreds of millions or billions of people. Forced medical experiments are a violation of the Nuremberg protocols.

Well, not really. Unless by "oriented," you mean that they understand their revenue will be extracted from consumers. What all private enterprise is "oriented toward" is making a profit. In the business of "educating children," the goal is to get kids to pass government-constructed "standard tests" as profitably as possible. That's a far different goal than "providing the most useful and productive education to children." Most of what is referred to as 'education' is just indoctrination to the desired kind of citizenship the system thrives on. That has nothing to do with properly educating a human being.
Govt has totally failed at education, unless the goals were something other than literacy, math and science etc.
I've given it a great deal of thought, govt needs to be completely removed from every aspect of education, including measurement and funding.
American Central Planning is a failure just like it's role model the USSR, actually the USSR did a better job on education.
As to profit, govt is so good at losing money that the US is now bankrupt, and has fallen to printing and borrowing to sustain the unsustainable losses from corruption, incompetence, over reach and mismanagement. $31 T in debt more than $200T unfunded liabilities. The operating deficit is now entering the hockey stick phase of growth.
Martin Armstrong believes inflation has been running in the range of 25% since 2020. I believe Williams aka Shadowstats has it near 18%.
The dollar devalued by 99% since 1913, print baby print.

Your posts are all well and good, but consider the dates, and who was included, and who was not. Then consider the progress made after masses of people were free to pursue an education instead of it being against the law to teach them. The chart I quoted takes into account these differences. Widespread public education, a dream of Jefferson's, along with post war economic factors allowed for the rise of a solid middle class and far more inclusive than before.

It is kind of interesting because YT and other social media can be useful for cult leaders to convince people to drink Kool Aid.
There are myriad claims out there, like horse deworming medicine curing cancer, etc. I haven't checked, but it wouldn't surprise me to find advocates for drinking Mercury.
Should large companies be required to host such people?
My understanding of the way congress set it up
was that Internet bulletin boards aka unedited free speech were immune from suits brought because the claims were false or misleading, 230.
Newspapers and others that edit the content do not have the protections of sec. 230 and can be sued for false or misleading claims.
What has happened is that the formerly free speech boards protected by 230, are now edited but for some reason still have the protections of 230.
Flat earth, lizard people, UFOs when it's time to distract the public, non stop inversions from official spokesmen and officials.
I can take it. All of it.

In 1840, the literacy rate in Massachusetts was 99%. (Table 14.1, Page 301, Civil War America, 1850 To 1875)

The Myth that Americans Were Poorly Educated before Mass Government Schooling Early America had widespread literacy and a vibrant culture of learning.
Wednesday, April 29, 2020
Lawrence W. Reed
In 1983, Robert A. Peterson’s "Education in Colonial America" revealed some stunning facts and figures. “The Federalist Papers, which are seldom read or understood today even in our universities,” explains Peterson, “were written for and read by the common man. Literacy rates were as high or higher than they are today.” Incredibly, “A study conducted in 1800 by DuPont de Nemours revealed that only four in a thousand Americans were unable to read and write legibly” [emphasis mine].

Maybe your facts are different? By 1870 public education was widespread in the US, and it would have been sooner if people had listened to Thomas Jefferson.
"Free" Education and Literacy
01/28/2004Barry Dean Simpson
excerpt, article worth a read.....
The situation in America roughly parallels that in England. In 1650, male literacy in America was 60%. Between 1800 and 1840, literacy in the Northern States increased from 75% to 90%, and in Southern States from 60% to 81%. These increases transpired before the famous Common School Movement led by Horace Mann caught steam. Massachusetts had reached a level of 98% literacy in 1850. This occurred before the state's compulsory education law of 1852. Senator Edward Kennedy's office released a paper in the 1980s stating that literacy in Massachusetts was only 91%.7
While some people might wonder exactly what literacy entailed during the early Nineteenth Century, anecdotal evidence points to a highly educated and refined populace. In his book Separating School and State, Sheldon Richman gives a variety of examples of the sophisticated nature of America's readers.
Thomas Paine's Common Sense sold 120,000 copies to a population of three million—the equivalent of ten million copies in the 1990s. Noah Webster's Spelling Bee sold five million copies to a population of less than twenty million in 1818. Walter Scott's novels sold the same number between 1813 and 1823—the equivalent of sixty million copies in the 1990s. James Fenimore Cooper's The Last of the Mohicans also sold millions of copies. Scott and Cooper are certainly not written on today's fourth-grade level.
Travelers to America during the period such as Alexis de Tocqueville and Pierre du Pont were amazed at the education of Americans.8 The reading public of Victorian England is so famous that numerous books and college literature courses are devoted to the subject. In fact, England eventually passed a paper tax to quell a public the leaders felt was too smart.
The reason behind the successes of private, fee-based systems should be elementary to any student of economics: Private businesses are consumer oriented. The feedback of profit and loss tells an entrepreneur when they satisfy, or fail to satisfy, the needs of consumers.

It's a big world out there. Find ways to help people (not necessarily for free), and your social credit score will rise.
I like YouTube. It has been a boon to the Age of Information. Censorship is not always good, but it's not always bad.
For example, there are things I'd like schools to censor when it comes to teaching kids about sex.
Literacy rates were higher before public schools
Less mental problems
less single mothers
lower murder rates
the list is endless

I glazed over
Are we discussing the much sought after original driver that Kilpsch used in the LaScalas heresys etc ?
If yes, I wasn't aware that Atlas was selling them.
Phenolic or titanium or something else.
I have a pair of the originals on my LaScalas
Must be 40 years old
Do the magnets need to be remagnitized
and do the phenolic diaphragms dry out losing flexibility ?
Thanks in advance
I realize, that the subject of different mid drivers is a bottomless discussion
Since Atlas makes PA systems
I believe that their driver offers superior speech intelligibility
Where Klipsch is IMHO (and most theater owners)
the best in the industry

I guess my position is I saw what basically pre/non-censorship brought us and I'm happier with the alternative...Once you think we've reached balance AI comes along. Oh, well. Watched about 3 hours of YouTube already today. 😎
AI = PROGRAMMABLE DATA BASE TOOL
That will eliminate the need for human censors
and will be linked to Social Credit Scores
and CBDC for automated punishment
fines will be deducted from your account.
Will also be linked to your smart meters
and other smart devices, like your EV
Once AI is rolled out
your soc media and YT preferences
will effect your social credit score.
Every click, comment and minute spent watching wrong think,

Since 2016 government and social media companies have worked together seemlessly to censor content deemed troublesome to their agenda. Short of a complete legal overhaul of the 1996 Communications Act and establishment of authentic free speech protections focused on citizens in place of political whims, I'm not optimistic for the future benefits of the Internet.
If the Internet turns into just another government bullhorn, like the NYT, WaPo, NPR, and network TV, it's value will drift to zero and all promise will have been lost. In fact, maybe (probably) it has already happened.
I think there was a psyop waged in which the populace was taught that information was itself "dangerous"--like bombs-- and that they should rely on government to protect them from that danger. Hence, all that ballyhoo about "disinformation" and "misinformation" and "fact checking Authority."Dangerous ideas:
Like the concept of free speech
testing claims, facts and sources
testing the logic of an argument
offering opposing points of view ie flat earth vs round earth vs it's all a simulation......
Challenging what our leaders or their controllers tell us to think, yes Orwellian nightmare

YT veered off from a public bulletin board
to content based on their management's views and narratives they support.
Alphabet hired an editor from the NYT,
tasked with synchronizing YT with the Editorial positions of the NYT. Sort of a video version of the failing NYT.
Search results took a bizarre turn
Query Misty, probably the most covered song in history
and you get 20+ links to Woody Allen who married his adopted daughter
who can no longer testify against him ?
Tens of thousands of channels were erased
based on ideological purity.
YT still has a content advantage since they were the first mover
with a 10 year head start
Content providers, have wised up
and post their content to multiple platforms
like BitChute, Rumble, Brighteon and others
distributing the viewership
and ensuring that deplatforming by the Editors of YT
does not silence their point of view.
The answer is I watch as little of YT as possible
if the content is on bitchute, I watch it there.

I believe the recording companies wanted to take her solo out of high school. She insisted in staying with her High School band Paramore, obviously successful.
Like all of the good female vocals, her voice exudes fertility. Maybe there is a govt grant for the study of estrogen and voice. Sirens Song.....
I hope she took some time off to drop some babies, shame if we lose her DNA......
I'll check out her solo LPs 2, hope it's more of the acoustic stuff that showcases her voice
QuoteShe has also released the solo EPs Petals for Armor I (2020) and Petals for Armor II (2020), the subsequent full-length solo album Petals for Armor (2020), and her second solo album Flowers for Vases / Descansos (2021).
Williams' other ventures include the music series Kiss-Off and the hair dye company Good Dye Young.

WHEN HAIR SPRAY WAS AFFORDABLE 80s
In the context of people spending money to see Devo
Amiee Mann was apparently in Tuesday morning
oops Til Tuesday, a punk band
Charted #8 on this song
Who said girls weren't covered with ink in the 80s
Whatever appeal her looks may have had,
the tats would have stopped me at the knee caps.
Recent photos the tats are gone
is removal less painful than getting them.
