October 18, 2019... “Event 201”
************************************************************************
On that date, Event 201 was held at the Pierre Inn in New York City. This event was sponsored by three powerful entities: the John Hopkins Center for Health Security; the World Economic Forum; and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The purpose of Event 201 was to plan and coordinate the reactions of government agencies and private entities should a major pandemic occur. (Man, talk about fortuitous timing!!!!)
As evidenced by the paragraph below, major emphasis was placed on coordinating public information about the pandemic. There seems to have been a great cause for concern that there might arise a great deal of what the attendees at Event 201 would consider “misinformation,” and that such misinformation must be quickly and efficiently countered, not just by making sure that the “real” story got out, but by CENSORSHIP OF INFORMATION DEEMED INACCURATE OR INAPPROPRIATE... AND METHODS OF CENSORSHIP SHOULD INCLUDE MANIPULATION OF all “free flowing” information on DIGITAL PLATFORMS. Only the official narrative must be readily available to citizens; all other information should be suppressed, by stealth if necessary.
Listen to the official summary from Event 201; “Governments and the private sector should assign a greater priority to developing methods to combat mis- and disinformation prior to the next pandemic response. Governments will need to partner with traditional and social media companies to research and develop nimble approaches to countering misinformation. This will require developing the ability to FLOOD media with fast, accurate, and CONSISTENT information. Public health authorities should work with private employers and trusted community leaders such as faith leaders, to promulgate factual information to employees and citizens.
“Trusted, influential private-sector employers should create the capacity to readily and reliably augment public messaging, MANAGE RUMORS AND MISINFORMATION, and AMPLIFY credible information to support emergency public communications. National public health agencies should work in close collaboration with WHO to create the capability to rapidly develop and release consistent health messages. For their part, media companies should commit to ensuring that AUTHORITATIVE messages are prioritized and that FALSE MESSAGES ARE SUPPRESSED INCLUDING THROUGH THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY. “
***********************************************************************
January 21, 2020... The CDC in an official news release, says that it continues to believe that the risk to the public of person-to-person transmission of the novel coronavirus is “low”.
***********************************************************************
The CDC is the voice of the science establishment, the voice that the media say we should listen to exclusively. But they were way behind the curve in January 2020. Why? Because they were listening to China and to WHO and to “experts” like Dr. Fauci, all of whom were still downplaying the dangers of the virus at that time, however much they try to rewrite history now.
***********************************************************************
January 31, 2020.... President Trump bans flights from China to the US.
***********************************************************************
In fulfillment of Clare Booth Luce's witty axiom, “No good deed goes unpunished” Trump is instantly ridiculed by much of the media, by prominent Democrats, by all the very people who will later piously excoriate him for “not having done enough.” [But in January, Joe Biden was still saying that Trumps' China travel ban was racist and xenophobic. In reality, it probably saved millions of lives.]
It is also worth noting that at some point in December or January (I do not have exact dates on this), China had shut down travel between Wuhan and the rest of China, but DID NOT HALT INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS FROM WUHAN. Did you get that? China very deliberately chose to protect its own citizens, and very deliberately chose to infect the rest of the world. That is not an overstatement. That is a simple fact.
Meanwhile, at the New York Times, reporters are as busy as little bees, but not with the subject of coronaviruses. No, they are 100 percent preoccupied with American racism. This had officially become their policy back on August 12, 2019.
***********************************************************************
August 12, 2019. … The New York Times looks in its crystal ball and sees racism, racism, racism.
***********************************************************************
On this date, the New York Times holds a “town hall style” staff meeting to discuss what the paper is going to do, now that its Number One story—almost its ONLY story for two whole years-- has disintegrated (Trump's nonexistent Russian collusion). Of course, they don't actually have to “do” anything, except wait and see what happens and then report those events. But it quickly becomes clear that the reporters are on a mission, and that mission is to get Trump. If Trump didn't collude with Russia, no matter. He must have done something bad. And, they can always fall back on twisting his words to make him sound “racist.”
They reach an agreement to make race relations the Number One story of 2019-2020, and to make President Trump the villain in all reporting on race relations. A small sampling of the tone of the meeting, and of the frame of mind of reporters at our nation's top newspaper:
“I just feel like RACISM IS IN EVERYTHING. It should be considered in our science reporting, in our culture reporting, in our national reporting. And so, to me, it’s LESS ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL INSTANCES of racism [iow, don't bother us with mere facts], and sort of how we’re thinking about racism and WHITE SUPREMACY AS THE FOUNDATION OF ALL THE SYSTEMS in the country. ...
“I mean, one reason we all signed off on the 1619 Project and made it so ambitious and expansive was to TEACH OUR READERS TO THINK A LITTLE BIT MORE LIKE THAT. Race in the next year—and I think this is, to be frank, what I would hope you come away from this discussion with—RACE in the NEXT YEAR is GOING to be a HUGE part of the American story. “

June 1, 2020...
George Floyd dies in police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
***********************************************************************
Floyd's death could not have been foreseen. But, as we have seen, the American news media were primed for a major, major story about racial guilt; they wanted it so badly they could taste it.
When they got it, they played it for maximum impact.Even then, there were a lot of ways they could have played that impact.They could have brought out the stats and shown how unusual such a death really was. They could have shown how united the country was about the horror of Floyd's death. They could have used his death to lead into a larger story about black deaths by murder in general, and the causes of those deaths, not just the very rare one by police malfeasance.Instead, they chose to use the story to arouse maximum black anger and white guilt, and thus create maximum racial division and confusion. They played down information on Floyd's troubled, criminal history; they made him practically a saint. They suddenly lost all interest in coronavirus control. They pretended that all protests were “mostly peaceful,” even as buildings were burning right behind the "mostly peaceful" protesters.
They covered every second of Floyd's three (!) memorial services; they barely covered the deaths of black people including black police officers from rioters. They pretended that the take-over of several blocks of downtown Seattle was cutesy and fun. They barely covered the rapes, the assaults, the eventual murders that were part of that take-over. They showed no interest in who was funding the riots and takeovers.Instead, they minimized the violence that was occurring everywhere, thereby allowing that violence to grow and flourish and forcing victims to "suck it up." (if they managed to live). Some of the cities involved will take many years to recover, if they ever do. The media have much to answer for. But they have zero capacity for self-awareness or for personal responsibility. They are proud of the havoc they wrought.
People who have a vested interest in perpetuating several myths about our country and its history will try to convince you that what happened to race relations in the United States of America in 2020 was “inevitable.” It was nothing of the sort. It was managed and manipulated.
What about the coronavirus? Surely, that was an act of God. Sure, in the sense that everything that occurs is an act of God. I am not convinced that it is true in any other sense. America's leadership class, overwhelmingly Democrat and “liberal,” had for years averted its eyes from China's bullying of its own people, its neighbors, its colonies (esp. throughout Africa). There are indications that Dr. Fauci and friends knew what China was doing in its bio-weapons laboratories; a number of non-Chinese may have colluded and collaborated with China. Saint Anthony Fauci may even have funded and overseen the research. The simple facts that China destroyed evidence and destroyed human lives in order to frantically cover up evidence of the source of the novel coronavirus and how it came into being and how it spread, and that to this day we have nothing like a complete timeline—those are very strong indications that there was something going on, and had been going on for a long time, that we can and should call Evil. So there is a lot still to come out about the virus that supposedly shook the world on its axis.
If Pres. Trump is re-elected, that truth may come out. If he is not, that truth will certainly not come out. For myself, I would like to know more about Event 201 and its amazing prescience, and its fixation on control of information.We will long remember the events of 2019-2020. Let us include in our memory bank a few dates that should leap out at us. For me, what leaps out from what knowledge we do have of what happened on those dates—is the criminal negligence (at best) of our leadership class and its increasingly toxic culture. If we don't face up to that, we ain't seen nothin' yet in terms of human misery. And not just us, but the world. There won't be any place to hide.
