Greetings fellow anthropoids! Having received the day’s talking points from CNN, I will dutifully refrain from calling the viral scourge of the globe “Chinese.” I do not know if it is appropriate to cite the origin of the saying/curse “May you live in interesting times,” so I will not, but interesting times these are, at least in some ways. In others it’s banality as usual. While the kabuki theater (more appropriately bukkake theater in these post-Jussie Smollett Days of the Rainbow) continues as Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders compete to see who can debase themselves more for their Island of Misfit Toys electorate, as one side tries to shove more visas[1] into any coronavirus relief package and the other abortions, as the UNHCR and IOM continued to greenlight the re-settling of “refugees” from coronavirus-stricken regions into what’s left of your neighborhood up until March 17th, it was business as usual. Keep those borders wider than Jussie Smollett’s…never mind.

In all seriousness, though, this epidemic has exposed just how fragile the neo-liberal globalist system is. Thousands have died, thousands more will die, and millions are out of work. The response, or more appropriately lack thereof, by our leaders shows exactly what they are willing to risk in order for the status quo to be maintained. Already, the UNHCR came out and admitted that there were at least ten confirmed coronavirus cases among “refugees” and asylum seekers in Germany, prompting nameless aid officials to worry that “this might undermine future support for taking refugees.” I should think so, but our support for this project has never been required. Things will resume as they were once the crisis is over.

Or will they?

Most of the ramifications of the virus are mere accelerations of what was on the horizon. It is a black swan event, but one which has been lurking for some time. This was inevitable in some fashion. Imagine if it had happened ten years down the line when 100% of our pharmaceuticals rather than 95% of ibuprofen, 70% of acetaminophen, and 80% of antibiotics are made in China. There’s one silver lining, and another is that regular people are seeing firsthand just how untenable the neo-liberal system is, and where the priorities of the ruling class truly are. Many probably did not realize just how suicidally-dependent we are on Chinese manufacturing. On some level, perhaps, but walk into any grocery store (hypothetically speaking, I hope you are all well-stocked up by now) and you will see the effects already. All things considered and with apologies to those affected, this is really just a ripple compared to what could have happened, or what may yet come.

Do you think the latest batch of gender-queer “refugees” from parts unknown[2] have appropriately prepared themselves for any kind of disruption with canned goods, extra toilet paper, bottled water, a bug-out bag, and the like? Or the rest of the wonderful “diversity” we are so enriched with? Hardly. Guess what happens next?

Ominously, several municipalities have discussed banning the sale of guns, ammunition, and gasoline in any container other than a vehicle gasoline tank. Mayor Deborah Frank Feinen of Champaign, Illinois, signatory of the Champaign-Urbana Chapter of Bend the Arc Jewish Action’s pledge to Reject White Nationalism, already granted herself these powers and others, powers including the ability to prohibit entry into and out of the city, direct the shut-off of water, gas, and power, and “take possession of private property and obtain full title to same.”

And what about when the State Department agrees to begin greenlighting more “refugees’” entry into the country on April 7th, as they’ve promised? Fuel to the fire? We obviously don’t have work or resources for millions of people already here, and there will continue to be less, so what’s going to happen next? And will these people be appropriately screened? Of course not. Officially the flow is temporarily stopped, but there are a number of end-arounds, ranging from just walking over the border to the refugee privatization aspect I discussed with the state of Maine.

Anyone still harboring any illusions about Donald Trump needs to read the following. He led off his March 19th press conference on the measures being taken to combat the spread of the coronavirus by celebrating the return of “New Hampshire man” Amer Fakhoury from Lebanon to receive medical care for his stage 4 lymphoma. It’s not like our medical professionals have other things to worry about, right? Oh, and by the way, Fakhoury collaborated with Israel during their occupation of southern Lebanon.

In late January and February, after assuring constituents that the coronavirus was nothing to worry about and after receiving a private briefing on the situation, Senators Richard Burr and Kelly Loeffler offloaded stocks at this crucial time, well before the current crisis point. Burr co-authored a piece for Fox News on February 7th stating that, “the United States today is better prepared than ever before to face emerging public health threats, like the coronavirus.” The kinds of stocks are especially damning, such as Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Burr’s dumping of $150,000 worth of shares of Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, which has lost two-thirds of its value, according to ProPublica, and $100,000 of shares of Extended Stay America. All told Burr is alleged to have sold off as much as $1.72 million in stocks. In addition to allegedly offloading stocks to the tune of up to $3.1 million, Loeffler or her husband Jeff Sprecher (Chairman of the New York Stock Exchange) also purchased stocks on February 7th for Citrix, a company that provides remote working software and technologies. Shortly after the January 24th full-Senate briefing, Dianne Feinstein, James Inhofe, and David Perdue all sold off large amounts of stock; Feinstein is alleged to have sold off up to $6 million in stocks from late January to mid-February. Perdue not only offloaded stocks in Caesars Entertainment but also loaded up on $245,000 in Pfizer stock.

So the government, on either side of the aisle, is genuinely an occupation government, depraved beyond all redemption and yes, we know this, but millions more are seeing it plain as day in the most obvious fashion imaginable. And the Dissident Right, led by the work of people like Tom Kawczynski and his incredible Coronavirus Central podcast, has been at the forefront of providing people with reliable unbiased information, which enhances our credibility immeasurably and is an obvious conduit to the truths we speak and write on other topics people have been so conditioned to ignore or even be afraid of. We could extend this on a much larger scale to the role Tucker Carlson is playing every night; no, he’s not Kevin MacDonald, Andrew Joyce, or Brenton Sanderson, but he is the most visible and accessible gateway to our ideas.

I won’t pretend the coronavirus is a good thing, but I am trying to find the silver linings in this situation. Obviously it would be preferable if one day there was a mass awakening to the decadent self-interest of our ruling class, of the subversion and dismantling of our country, but that was never and is never going to happen like some revelation. Perhaps this is the closest thing, and the conditions are such that we had better take advantage of it. There was always going to be collateral damage—just be safe and make sure that damage isn’t you, take care of your family and friends, and keep on fighting the good fight so one day we will never have to find ourselves in such a vulnerable position with criminally-negligent and downright hostile rulers like this again.

[1] In this instance, it would be the EB-5 “immigrant investor” visa; in 2014, more than 85% of the over 10,000 EB-5 visas issued were for Chinese nationals according to a study by real estate services firm Savills Studley. Under the Lindsey Graham proposed “addition,” the amount required for investment would be halved and the visas issued increased to 75,000 from around 10,000 per year.

[2] I use this as an example one, to continue the theme of sorts, but two, I have on good authority this is the latest golden ticket lie asylum-seekers and “refugees” have been coached-up to use, that of “fear of persecution for gender identity or sexuality.”
