JoNova: Science, carbon, climate and tax

 

Yesterday

…. Just like the climate debate, the crooks are the ones claiming they are “the science” even as they destroy it. It’s a sacred shield to fend off questions they don’t want to answer. Rand Paul claims Fauci is acting like the ‘all-high priest’ of science and it’s ‘dangerous’ The Daily Mail ‘It’s sort of a way of ending all debate because if you attack him or have any debate over any of his edicts
Just another cheap, safe and long-used-drug for our Health Ministers to ignore A new study looked at 944,000 US Veterans who had a Covid test sometime. Of those, 2,200 were alcoholics who were also prescribed disulfiram. We might expect alcoholics to crash and burn against Covid, but amongst them, strangely, infections were lower than in the non-alcoholics — 34% lower. And there were no deaths fr

The media headlines have been everywhere, but the truth is we know very little. Like everyone here, I was surprised at the *universal* instant Omicron media coverage which went from 0 – 100 in two seconds or less. I’m going to skip (for the moment) the obvious political questions like “is this the midterm election variant” and consider the virus. … We know Omicron has many mutations. We don’t kno

How much of the public narrative does Bill Gates buy for $300m? Buying national policy through backroom deals and party donations is so passe. For the Uber Rich it’s so much better to purchase the policy they prefer with glorious golden philanthropy. Be a hero, change the world, make money too. Bill Gates runs his own branch of the Charity Industrial Complex. Other moguls buy a newspaper, but Gat

Dr Aseem Malhotra is a consultant cardiologist and he’s calling for an end to mandatory vaccination while we investigate new results suggesting inflammatory blood markers are raised by the mRNA vaccines. “We know now that heart attacks are an inflammatory condition.” These same markers are used to estimate what the risk of a heart attack is. And the new higher markers hint that in this group of 5

Follow the science, eh? Bad news for athletes born as baby girls – unless they start testosterone therapy straight away, it’s hard to see how they can win against babies with 18 years of DIY hormone “treatments” that help them grow six inches taller, with lower body fat, and larger hearts and lungs. The old rules were silly, but the new ones are worse: New Olympic Committee Rules Essentially End

by Rafe Champion And how much do you really need to read if you are short of time and shelf-space? Everyone will have favourite books and people who read a lot will have a lot of favourites but you might be unwilling nominate any, in the way that you are not supposed to express favouritism among your offspring. To get the ball rolling I nominate two books that could in principle substitute for mos
The great offshore revolution that never happened Dogger Bank Wind Farm Dogger Bank will become the World’s Largest Wind Farm and maybe the World’s largest white elephant too. Despite years of research and hyperbole we can conclusively say that offshore wind is still a charity project, losing money from start to end.

Radio Garden There is something very cool, very curious, about being able to tune in to any station in the world. Spin the globe and pick a green dot. Hear Cher play in Novosibirsk, Russia, or Knights in White Satin in Port Chambers, New Zealand, and hear the same Uber Ads we hear in Australia in Peterborough, UK. Radio Garden is a great talking point for the next family gathering. Marvel at how

Back in the eighties people laughed at scientists who talked about the threat from asteroids. Then we got better tools, and started tracking them. Now we are finding more every night. Not only are there 27,000 near Earth asteroids that we know of, in the rest of the solar system we have found a few more, like 750,000. All this since the late 1990s. Some computer somewhere is tracking all those or

Here’s another unpatentable, natural, safe molecule that appears to work against Covid and will probably never be mentioned by any Chief Health Officer who wants a cushy job with the WHO or Pfizer. The Melatonin Molecule by Jynto An Iraqi group enrolled 158 Covid patients, and gave half of them 10mg of Melatonin a day. All patients got “standard care”, meaning they all got remdesivir, dexamethaso

Easy Money Begats Easy Billionaires, who build Easy Foundations, which are easily captured. And before you know it, the apolitical becomes political, and the political becomes a lobbying machine. Big Money becomes Huge Money and Huge Money wields power.

A post written and edited by Rafe Champion Note from Jo: This is a change from the last 5,000 posts. Rafe has written and edited this entirely a guest. Given the dearth of independent blogs in Australia since the end of Catallaxy, it seems an experiment worth trying. Introducing myself. Jo has taken me on board as an occasional contributor after the old Catallaxy Files closed down and I was homele
Huge protests were held all over the world. Here in Perth, Western Australia with a population of 2 million, I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s a not a political town, has had barely 30 cases of Covid in the community (in total) and yet, the central mall was packed wall to wall. Walking in with placards, strangers in the traffic were shouting approval through open car windows. The best vide

The Will of the People has been replaced with a Rule by the Bureaucratic Class. The Bureaucratic class dress themselves in fake charity — to help women and children, minorities, and trees, but these are the lies they tell themselves while they oppress the poor, raze the trees and use sexist, racist policies to line their pockets. It’s a trend occurring all over the West. But nowhere was it more ob

The most surprising thing about the Brandon government is that it hasn’t done this before the Babylon Bee. … “We have a deadly enemy out there,” announced General “Sparkles” McKenzie, “and it’s called carbon.

As David Rose so aptly puts it, China was digging out record amounts of coal and Xi Jinping did not even turn up to Glasgow but green evangelistas were shaming the West and praising China.

Hands Up: It’s Net Zero now or a 1.5% interest rate hike? So Australia is adopting Net Zero because the Global Financiers, who only want to save the world, would have refused to lend us money without jacking up our interest rates by 1.5%. The banker punishment would have meant a “17% investor exodus”. Fancy a stock market collapse? This remarkable admission comes in the modeling released today by

Some claim that we don’t know how ivermectin works, but oh boy we do Not only do we know how ivermectin protects us, we know many pathways in detail. Ivermectin is useful at every stage of the disease. In the early stages, it reduces the odds of people getting infected, stops the virus multiplying, which reduces the viral load and the spread of the virus to your friends and strangers on the bus.

Nature and Elsevier are agog and aghast that hundreds of junk papers filled with random word salad have been published in their esteemed journals.

The researchers matched them or “paired them” with another 840,000 people who were the same, age, sex and from the same area. Out of this 1.6 million pooled sample, 27,000 people went on
