Measles Returns
The first child to die from measles in more than a decade passed away earlier this week, but her parents may be pleased her blood was pure and untainted by vaccine for the wrlcoming arms of Jesus.

Quarantine?
Nearly twenty children are currently hospitalized. One in Krasnov’s administration insisted they were just being quarantined, which is false. They need help breathing.

I don’t know if the respirators are required or only precautionary, but I do know with Covid a friend of mine would have died absent access to a ventilator.

All this suffering and misery because people are so afraid of needles.

Trump's brilliant approach to public health.
We saw it with COVID. Now the second episode...

I recall RFK Jnr saying he had no problem with vaccines, but only if a single jab would give 100% lifelong immunity.

I suppose he would only drink water if one cupful gives 100% lifelong immunity from dying of thirst.

The key to a successful kleptocracy is to make the opposition believe that you are stupid. By saying and doing stupid things over and over again to camouflage your cash grabbing.

Like the ole saying goes.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance. Baffle em with bullshit.

Birds
I was thinking about birds today, after I discovered a two dozen clutch of eggs. Sweet, beautiful hens! I put them in a bucket of water and they all laid flat, so I was pleased about that. Despite some freezing cold nights a bit over a week ago none of these were cracked. I had to pitch one or two a couple of weeks ago for being cracked and messy. Normally I just eat the cracked ones if the inner part isn’t breached, and I know the egg is fresh. I will eat that one next, the following day’s breakfast. Scrambled and well cooked. But all these eggs were great.

Anyway, the hens came up to me for food. I remember throwing grain toewars a bird that studiously ignored what was on the ground, acting like they didn’t see it. Maybe they didn’t, but it occurred to me maybe it was just pretending to be stupid so I would throw out more. I wondered if wild birds adopted a strategy like that to deceive old men on park benches into pitching out more bread. It would be a good trick.

No, these guys appear genuinely “fully retarded,” to borrow a Musk phrase.

Check this out:

… cannot find it. But it rivals the stupidest things Groper has ever posted.

Conclusion
So Groper posts the most puerile, asinine ignorance in the hopes stupid old men will feed him more? Attention whōrę.

Crazy.

I do not understand how the last three posts have any relevance to measles.

What is worrying is that measles, which is easy to prevent, can return after an absence of several decades. This phenomenon makes me fear that other virus infections may return as well, which are more dangerous. This leads me to question why so many people are convinced that a simple preventative vaccine is part of a massive, international conspiracy.

Following on that train of thought, it leads me to assert in the darkest recesses of my mind that some people just should not be allowed to contribute to the gene pool of mankind. But I shouldn't admit that so openly because it is obviously politically incorrect..... even if it is the truth.

And then I end up at the Darwin Awards.

another child dies in Texas.
Kennedy jr visits Texas as the second, (un vaccinated), child in the state dies of measles. In a near reversal of his previous positions he now says that getting your child vaccinated with the MMR vaccine is the most effective means of prevention.

My hens post was related to the bird flu rather than measles. But I forgot to mention that outbreak in my excitement over the clutch of eggs.

I could be wrong however my opinion is. Social media marketing conspiracy theories so people will buy other products. During covid it was hydroxychloroquine and mono colloidal antibodies. Which made the stock price of those commodities skyrocket so the thieves could make a quick killing (pun intended) I mean why get a free MNRA vaccine when you could spend 1,200$ for monocloidal antibody treatment.

Fear is a powerful marketing component because it taps into the other most powerful marketing component, "word of mouth "

These savvy business practices ( that even President Trump participated in his constant comments and tweets) should be criminalized with the harshest penalties imaginable. If for no other reason they cost people their health and lives. But no in the land of Mammon's worship. Such practice is admired and mimicked by evey unscrupulous small fish there is.

And land of the free and home of the brave my ass

<This leads me to question why>. Who knows, but the answer has gotta be a touch on the weird side., and maybe even good for some laughs. From time to time this kind of question gets tossed around. I’ m thinking the agreed on answer frequently boiled down to, “who know’s? We can’t even eliminate fear of needles? Does any other society on earth have a similar problem?

Apatzer’s theory is interesting but we have always had snake oils salesmen. Vitamin A. Memory water (homeopathy sympathetic magic), dietary supplements, colloidal silver, macrobiotic diets, reiki, colonic irrigation, urine, essential oils, craniosacral therapy, vaginal steaming (please don’t do this!), crystal healing, or quaffing bleach (this one is fine—do as often as necessary).

What is new is Russian propaganda encouraging a broad array of abject idiocy.

This is really occurring, and to further encourage it Groper has shuttered the US agency tasked with combatting lies and cyberwarfare. In Groper’s view Russia’s meddling is welcome as it has been of great personal benefit to him.
