It gives me some small satisfaction that Broadway is already beginning to shut down again - for everyone - due to the Megatron "surge."Hari Seldonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10208029436316655499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-45358204931327049892021-12-19T20:43:05.189+00:002021-12-19T20:43:05.189+00:00@HC - " I am indefinitely banned from those a...@HC - " I am indefinitely banned from those activities"<br /><br />Don't worry overmuch - the situation is brief: *everybody* (except the Establishment themselves, naturally) will soon be banned from all such activities on a 'permanent' basis (*if* Their plans continue to proceed without opposition). The *slightly* sooner ban of the unpecked is merely a strategy to get them to accept the peck. The intent is that every sanction against the unpecked will shortly afterwards become 'universal' for the Little People.

Previously, that neutral ground was occupied by pop cultural topics like movies and TV shows, but our cultural tastes aren't really similar, and of course pop culture is increasingly degenerate and politicized.<br /><br />The worst thing is when my relatives gush about some overseas trip they took or some Broadway musical that they saw, and I have to decide whether to politely remind them that I am indefinitely banned from those activities due to my peck status, or keep my mouth shut. I keep my mouth shut. It's extremely tough to remain cordial under these circumstances.Hari Seldonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10208029436316655499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-21847115167999768582021-12-19T19:50:45.804+00:002021-12-19T19:50:45.804+00:00The purpose of the masks is clearly to humiliate t...The purpose of the masks is clearly to humiliate the population and render them compliant. There are those, the majority, who go along with this and a small minority who see the evil motives of the ruling establishment. It seems the division into sheep and goats has begun. Things are going according to Satan's plans because most people are, frankly, weak but we know that his ultimate defeat is assured particularly as regards those who keep faith with God.William Wildbloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231219533755925897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-90591697315839271932021-12-19T18:14:46.761+00:002021-12-19T18:14:46.761+00:00I live in a parallel world from the one in which p...I live in a parallel world from the one in which people walk the streets in masks without compulsion; and regard the case for yet another (and, presumably, this time permanent) wave of social restrictions to be 'overwhelming' and an absolute moral imperative. <br /><br />With not many (and I suspect only temporary) exceptions; the population is *visibly* self-segregating into a majority class who regard the institutional leaders and their stooges as moral arbiters and motivated by the good-of-those-who-think-likewise - and a minority class who regard the Establishment as actively, purposively evil.<br /><br />Knowing a person's views on the birdemic, MLB-antiracism, global warmism, the trans agenda or ay other mainstream headline issue of the day (China, Russia... anything) - one knows that person's basic *spiritual* values: and these values are so by-now opposed as to make interaction increasingly difficult and painful for those on different sides. <br /><br />There are very few 'safe subjects' nowadays - and the idea is - clearly - that there will be none; because all discourse is being replaced by 'politics'... chat about all the old neutral subjects is now drawn into current-affairs - sports is convulsed by the birdemic, antiracism and trans issues; 'the weather' that old English staple - is all about allegations of 'climate change'; holidays are all about the latest birdemic-peck legislation... etc. etc. <br /><br />People across the spiritual-value divide have almost nothing to talk about with each other that does not tend to increase the divide. <br /><br />Yes - things are going according to Satan's plans, for sure... <br /><br />Bruce Charltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09615189090601688535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513199068907090344.post-84924795126841930312021-12-19T16:32:25.033+00:002021-12-19T16:32:25.033+00:00Amen!Amen!John Goeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00206464455510064541noreply@blogger.com
