From Zero Hedge:
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/no...-we-pissed-cia

Well, now we've done it - we've angered the CIA, and for what? For publishing views that challenge the conventional narrative, such as disputing that an invasion of Ukraine is actually "imminent" as the US State Department and its mainstream media conduits repeat day after day, or that the Covid virus was actually created in a Chinese lab, a view which has gained substantial prominence in recent months after it emerged that none other than the UK's Jeremy Farrar (also known as the UK's Doctor Fauci) played a pivotal role in stifling suggestions that this new virus might have come from a laboratory rather than emerged through natural zoonotic transmission from animals.

Of course, there is no actual accusation that Zero Hedge works directly with anyone tied to Russia or its intelligence apparatus - as the AP admits "officials did not say whether they thought Zero Hedge knew of any links to spy agencies and did not allege direct links between the website and Russia", which is correct because - and we will repeat this once again for the record and for all future similar hit piece attempts to smear us - this website has never worked, collaborated or cooperated with Russia, nor are there any links to spy (or any other) agencies; instead all the AP notes, citing some unnamed "intelligence official", is that the US intelligence apparatus is unhappy that among our hundreds of guest publishing contributors is a website called Strategic Culture Foundation which US intel officials "allege" take direction from the SVR, the Russian foreign intelligence service.

You're running behind the times by months. The mask mandate ended in my city in May and state required lockdowns ended June 1 of 2020. All statewide covid restrictions were lifted in March of 2021.

What do you mean? The Democrats aren't even interested in listening to Bernie and get Medicare For All passed. And Trump was threatening more socialism when he said before the election that he had something even better than ObamaCare.

I've been saying for years here on C-D that its the top 1% versus the 99%. If the 99% band together, they can take the country back.

The 99% just need to be told how to do it.

no need to be told, it's happening organically. The last peg is when the populist left realizes they are on the same side as the right as they were during Occupy Wall Street before the division campaign was implemented

What is it that you love, dear? What do you see happening and what does the country look like when your so called establishment collapses? What exactly do you want accomplished? What specifically does society look like and what does day to day life look like? What are the rules in your so called collapsed establishment America? Are there rules? You know please do explain what replaces that which you gleefully desire destroyed? You want to demolish our Constitutional Republic and diminish democracy and replace it with what? How does that work and what does that actually look like?

Voting in the opposition party changes nothing permanently because they are owned by lobbyists too.

As you see in Canada, people are grateful for the protests, as was i, but it will do nothing to change anything. Already Trudeau has enacted some type marshall law today to remove all the truckers. You see what they did at the Ambassador Bridge. , but at the end of the day, they accomplished nothing. The dictators won't listen but only take force to remove anyone that opposed them.

I think at this point to make any changes, it can't be done by smiles and being polite or being peaceful. It's going to take something like a civil war....just how I feel. I don't want it to come to that though.
"As you see in Canada, people are grateful for the protests." Nope; they were not, as evidenced by a MINORITY government, able to be felled with a single non-confidence vote put forth by ANY of the opposition parties still in power with such a vote not materializing - indicating all those opposition parties are well aware of how their constituents actually felt about an illegal protest fomented by white supremacists.

"Canadians gave us so much hope." Nope again; Canadians in the context with which you've used the descriptor are all aware as to the origin and make-up of the protest and disgusted at their behaviour from day one through to the various blockades of commerce that disgusted the vast majority of Canadians.

Also; a significant number of those showing up to align with the protesters were not truckers nor were they Canadians.

"I don't want it to come to that though." Horse pucky! Your previous posts veritably dripped with encouragement of illegal blockades and turmoil to ramp up in both countries to what can only be compared to a lust for a civil war. You're not fool'n anybody.

Your questions require critical thinking. Can you guess what will come back?
